    Haha. Pete, you must’ve been talking to my dad…..he’s been having me do that for years now. You seem to be starting them at an earlier age though.

    I hate to say it, but I’d do the same thing, especially with pumping gas!

    @Nigel, it’s important to start them early! :)

    I really think you should go the Colorado way and just put river rocks out. They don’t blow away, decompose or fade. Could save you hundreds of $$.

    Hey Pete, I am reading a old book that my pastor gave me and thought about some good things that you have said before. I posted about the book today if you want to take a look. Have a great week!

    Dad’s boots? (Or this boy has very large feet!)
    Dad’s shovel?
    Dad’s work ethic :)
    There’s something very satisfying in shoveling mulch. You get to see where you’ve been!

    @Candy, I”ll admit we had a lot of fun. He really is a big help.

    Wait, is that a Minnesota Vikings Jersey your son is wearing? I thought you guys lived in Tennessee.

    Is the Viking’s Jersey his work shirt? :)

    Isn’t it just the best thing when you can venture out into the yard after winter!?!? Makes the work a bit easier :)

    Pete…wanted to thank you for the beautiful illustration. It’s good to have what I say to my kids backed up by a Pastor. I brought my son in to show him your posts and show him that it isn’t just me—the Pastor said so! So thank you for making my load just a little easier!

    Ha! I LOVE that my older girls are big enough now to really be helpful. Can’t wait until they can do dishes, though…

    :-)

    Great picture!
