    We have some dead Aspen trees that needed to be cut down.  We tackled it this weekend.  It looks naked out there.  But it had to be done.

    Ava is the perfect age to help with things like this.  Plus it is in her nature to be a helper.  So she dove in.  (Laney not so much…thus the lack of photos of her here.)  Was it ever strange to be doing this with my daughter…when I remember growing up living in the country and doing firewood was part of our way of life.  Do you ever have flashback moments like that?

    And the infamous woodpile photo.  I remember seeing photos like this in family albums when I was a kid.  It must be ingrained in me to take photos of wood piles…freaky!  ;D  Guess it is just so weird to be doing this kind of thing in a subdivision!!!  ;D

    We will be makin’ s’mores with our little pot belly wood stove…;D

    LOL to flashbacks and photos of woodpiles…Not sure I have seen family photos of woodpiles but I darn sure know I stacked enough wood in my lifetime! As to Michael doing some of the same things I did as a child and having flashbacks…hmmm NO! He’s to much of a wussybutt!! Yea to Eva for helping out and sorry about losing the trees!
