Cheap Labor

We did some tough work today!  Landscaping.  Whew!

Gabe and Svanna taking out a bush.  Actually, they already had it out.  
Gabe is posing for a picture for me. ha!


The edging I wanted out was screwed to the fence, so Tye got to use his new drill. Suh-weet.
Yes, my boy saved his own money to buy a drill.


Popsicle break!


It was very hard work, and the temps were a bit hot!  Svanna says to me, "Mom, when we're all grown up you're gonna have to do this stuff by yourself!"

Seriously I am very proud of the kids.  Most worked hard with few complaints.  Ripping out old landscaping paper with 2 inches of dirt on top of it isn't fun (hmmmm....maybe that's why we get lots of weeds?).  I thought about paying them for their above and beyond efforts, but sometimes you just have to feel good about a job well done.

I have some pretty terrific kids!
