Rock Piles and a Princess????

Ever since we took the "princess" to Disney World for her birthday she has lived as a princess. She's even go the attitude down, much to moms dismay. on Memorial Day weekend we took advantage of the nice weather and Bryan being home to get some stuff done around the house.

Chris joined me at the "rock store" or the landscape material supply place to pick out some rocks for our yard. This was a dream for him. Piles and piles of rocks that he could climb in an play with. We picked out the cobble we wanted and scheduled our delivery. Chris sat patiently in the driveway for an hour waiting for the Rock Man to come and deliver the treasures. As soon as the rocks were in the driveway, there was a boy on top!

The next day when we were ready to move it the kids wanted to help us. Dani wanted to change her church clothes and get ready to work. I guess everyone needs a good crown when they are going to do yard work. This girl is definitely not lacking in the personality department.

The princess came out ready to work.

one by one she helped Daddy load the wheelbarrow with rocks.

She was so serious too.....

I think we may need a larger top, Daddy was not thrilled with the tummy showing

Chris on the other hand was a big help with all the large rocks.

I have never seen a kids so willing to do manual labor

I twas a great way to spend our Memorial Day weekend and the kids actually had a blast. I think it was fun for them to do something the whole day with us and feel like they truly were helping. Even if at one point they were walking the rocks to the backyard one by one!
