Daddy makes all things better...

So I know the kids are sick when they don't want to go outside or will only be out for a bit and want to come back in. While Jeremy was at his parent's, I was able to get the boys out for about 20 minutes and Liz flat our refused to go out. The kids always miss daddy while he is gone...doesn't matter if it is a work day or a quick trip out of town or a long trip...they are always asking about him...this time was no different. They are also very happy to see him once he does return. He returned as the kids were just waking from naps, so what a treat it was to wake and see him. Well daddy obviously rocks the house cause not only did he get them out of the house but he got them working too.
The task: haul wood chips to the new flower garden and spread them out.
Equipment need: tractor, trailer, rakes and shovels.
Here is the gang ready to work and headed to the work site...
He did not have to give much instruction to his helpers...first ground level...

then from on the trailer...

until it was empty...

job well done...onto the next trailer full...

This time...big trailer or they will be at this until dark...

Daddy and his helpers...

Alex working hard on filling the corner...

Liz on the opposite corner...

Zach working on the areas in between...

They are hard workers...

they don't stop until the last wood chip is gone...

then for the ride back to the shed...

stop to wave at mommy! They were exhausted when they got back in!
