Working

Proof of hard work! When we got in that night it was late and there was no time for a bath. I sat all three of the filthy little beasts on the bathroom counter and went to work with a washcloth. Next time I'll just turn the hose on them!
We are trying to transplant some aspen tree starts. They are pretty small and a little hard to see among all the weeds sooo...the kids put little stone borders around each one. They really worked hard and felt good about their work. My sweet kids are not good workers most of the time so when they get into a job that they enjoy and care about, it is pretty cool. I suspect that part of the reason they enjoyed this job so much had something to do with the dirt!
The light was nice and I've been trying to learn more about my camera so I can take some really nice photos. This one is close to what I'm going for. I tried to get the girls too but Sarah wouldn't quit making goofy faces. Maybe next time.
