Kids at the Bottling Party

Today we had another bottling party for our ward. While the ladies worked their magic processing the fruit the kids had a blast too. Frequently you could find the kids trying to help with the fruit preparation like Rachel and Sarah Simmons.

But most we found playing inside and out...mostly out. Here Aleky is following Eleanor Anderson up the ladder.

Donovan has discovered how to swing on his own power and is having a blast.

David loves anything that goes fast. Here he is simply unwinding from a hectic day.

Michael has decided that ladders are for the little kids. He must climb up by some other way.

Tennison Anderson is just happy to be here. What a great kid, hardly noticed he was here because he was so content.

Garden Preparation: Tilling the Garden

Michelle has gotten serious about getting her garden prepared so that she can get her plants in the ground. She hasn't worked out all the details for the watering system but she know where everything will be planted to maximize the garden space and minimize the watering needed.

Our boys have decided that they are best qualified to help with such an endeavor. Under the careful supervision of Uncle Kyle, the work of turning the soil has commenced. Even our neighbor Sara has decided that the scope and size of this project required addition (wo)man hours. And let me tell you what...this is the perfect work for young boys (playing in the dirt). Donovan and Michael actually got their little trowels and started turning the dirt, just like Uncle Kyle.


(Typical supervisor...)Now what were the odds that he'd ever have permission to be in the garden? Aleky is going to take full advantage of any such opportunity.
