Property clean-up

We went up to my family's property this weekend to do some clean up work. The boys spent 5 hours (no break) Saturday morning hauling wood into piles and burning. Samantha loved it with so much going on! I spent the morning keeping her away from: the fires, the chainsaws, the crazy 4-wheeler driver (Eric), and all the cow poop. She only picked up big handfuls of poop 2 times!!







Grandpa sat by the wives and kids trying to be in charge, but his sons all had their own ideas and didn't listen much. They are all very alike wanting to be in charge.


















I LOVE this one of my Dad and his brother filling up their chain-saws!!








I know she looks like she could be on a postcard in that beautiful field!
