Spring Clean Up!!

No, we do not believe in child labor but when they volunteer you bet we don't turn it down. This week we finally got some warm days that were not windy either. There were lots of leaves up against this stone wall and Avery took it upon herself to go find her rake and started clearing things up. Before we knew it the kid needed a yard bag for all that she had raked up on the yard and out of the "flower bed". See the little monkey in the background hanging from the tree? I guess that other picture of him needs some explanation too...he is not fond of loud noise so when Chris started up the leaf blower/sucker he had to go get him these Army earphones that help make things quiet. Silly boy. That is a face we see a lot. Thanks Avery for being a good helper.
