Teaching my daughter the art of throwing knives—with safe 3D-printed ones, of course. My wife shows how it’s done, and we all aim small to miss small. #homeschoollife #familyskills #diyparenting #3dprinting #wildheartlegacy #aimsmallmisssmall
She collects mugs. I build displays. A little weekend project to show her (and the mugs) some love. #homemadegift #mugcollector #diyproject #husbandlife #woodworking
We didn’t plan it. No worksheets. No schedule. Just a weekend of frogs, foxes, and daisy crowns. This is homeschooling—when you let the world teach. 🌾
He saw me grab the bucket and ran to grab a sponge. Not because it was his job. But because it was mine. Our kids want to be with us in the small stuff. Not later. Not when it’s convenient. He didn’t want to wash the truck. He wanted to be part of what I was doing. So we made a mess. Laughed a lot. And yeah, the truck got clean, too. #WildheartLegacy #DadLife #KidsWhoHelp #SimpleMoments #FamilyTime #PresentParenting #HomesteadKids #BuildingTogether
Stopped for a moment to watch a bumblebee working the overgrown chive blossoms. In the middle of building, parenting, planning — nature’s still doing her thing. Quietly. Beautifully. Sometimes the best part of homesteading is what grows when you don’t control it. #ChiveBlossoms #BumblebeeMagic #HomesteadMoments #PollinatorPause #SlowLiving #WildheartLegacy #BackyardEcology #BeesAndBlooms #NatureKnowsBest #MicroMomentsp
Shed Build Series: Sheet Metal Time! We’re covering up — putting on the metal roofing and siding, one panel at a time. Drills humming, panels lining up, and yes… the kids found a way to be part of it too (even if that meant playing with magnets and handing us screws 😄). This part always feels like a transformation — from a skeleton of studs to a solid structure that’s finally taking shape. Still a ways to go, but this roof is on, and it’s starting to feel real. #SheetMetalShed #ShedBuild #HomesteadProjects #DIYFamilyBuild #MetalRoofing #HomesteadingWithKids #WildheartLegacy #FamilyDIY #BackyardWorkshop #BuildItYourself
🏠 Shed Build Series: Roof Time! This episode we’re up top — cutting rafters and explaining how to make those key bird’s mouth cuts so everything sits tight and true. It’s a mix of math, muscle, and measuring twice (sometimes three times with kids around 😅). The kids are still on board, handing up tools and keeping things interesting. One step closer to a roof over our shed and another memory made. #ShedBuild #DIYWithKids #RoofFraming #BirdsMouthCut #FamilyProjects #HomesteadLife #FramingTips #WildheartLegacy #HandsOnLearning #BackyardDIY
Shed walls going up — and so are the memories. Today we got two more walls framed and mounted, with the kids lending a hand (and then diving into a well-earned sandbox break). It’s not just about what we’re building — it’s who we’re building it with. Every project becomes a lesson, a laugh, and a chance to slow down and do something real together. #ShedBuild #DIYWithKids #FamilyProjects #BackyardBuild #HomesteadLife #WildheartLegacy #HandsOnParenting #FramingWithFamily #SandboxBreak #LittleHelpersBigHearts
Shed Build Part 2! 🔨 We framed up the back wall and got it mounted — nothing fancy, just steady hands, a level, and a good afternoon of work. Every wall going up feels like one step closer to the space we’re building for tools, projects, and maybe a little peace and quiet. 😅 These builds aren’t just about what you’re putting together — it’s about who you’re doing it with and what you’re building towards. #ShedBuild #DIYLife #HomesteadProjects #WildheartLegacy #WallFraming #FamilyDIY #BackyardShed #HandsOnLiving #BuildWithPurpose #FramingFun #BackWallDone
Kicking off our shed build series! 🔨 Step one was all about laying a solid foundation — literally. We built the floor frame, squared it up, and got it perfectly level (or close enough for real life 😉). Because any good build — whether it’s a shed, a homestead, or a family — starts with a solid base. Follow along as we take this from leveled lumber to fully functional backyard workspace. #DIYProject #ShedBuild #BackyardWorkshop #HomesteadLife #WildheartLegacy #DIYSeries #LevelUp #BuildWithMe #HandsOnLife #FoundationFirst #FamilyProjects
