Wood!


So I mentioned that one of the things the kids did while they were at my parents house was cut wood. They would go up to the mountains with the men, and cut the trees down and into smaller pieces to load into the pickup. Then, they would bring them back to my parents house and unload them into a large pile. After that it was my job and the kids to run the hydralic wood spliter and split the wood into smaller pieces. It was a good job for them, especially since I was the one lifting all the wood, and they just had to run the lever. Chad had to go to Boise to get some sprinkler parts for my parents, so he took the pickup and a huge trailer full of wood back to our house. It was a little out of the way, but this is what I was met with when I got home. Claire thought it was a fun place to climb. Hopefully it will keep us warm all winter!
