BIG Saturday Project

After cutting down all those trees in our backyard, we had a huge mess to clean up. Luckily, we have some great friends down the street that were there to help! It all started with Jeremy offering them some of our wood, once it was chopped. There is just so much, we really had no need for it all. Anyways, they totally wanted it and offered to rent a splitter and help get it cut up. So, today has been the day of sawing, chopping, splitting, and hauling. What a day! They've worked so hard! I was the runner, buying them food and drinks (and taking pictures!). I feel kinda lazy actually. The Feely's have been a great help, doing so much work and taking most of this wood off our hands. Thanks guys! And thanks Jer, for getting our new yard ready! (To see some more of the "tree project" see the Timber and Some Fuzzy Friends post.)




Jer, showing off his skills!



Here's a glimpse of all the wood that still needs cut.



Jason, working hard!



Ben and his Dad working the splitter.



Jeremy took a break and rode Samantha around. At first she was a little timid about it, but ended up having a great time!



They rode from the back yard into the front and back...



The wood is cut, now the hauling begins, or should I say...continues.



Looks a lot better!



Here's just a small portion of the chopped wood. The rest is in another pile and at the Feely's already.

  1. Looks like a crazy day, but I'm glad you got so much accomplished. Now, you're probably onto working on the big party, huh? Can't wait to see the pictures.
