Tree Cutting Day

On Saturday all the kids met out at mom's to do some tree cutting. Chad got the honors of using his new chain saw and Jason got to drive the tractor. The job of carrying brush to the fire pile was Jacob's job. I got to stay in the nice warm house and help mom cook lunch. I did venture out a couple times for picutres and to see how things were going. It was a lot of hard work but the boys worked great together and there were no fights.....amazing!!!! Next time we work, I think someone should go through mom's cupboards first and throw out the things that are outdated!!!!!:)
Here goes the first tree!!
Trying to push it over with the tractor.

What you don't see in this picture is more funny!!!! Over to the right is a bush pile and apparently my mom's pet bunny lives in there. Well, when that tree hit the ground, that little bunny hopped so fast out of there. Jason said it took about two hops and it was under the deck. Poor thing will probably never come and visit again!!

Tree No#2. This is the tree that for years we thought was a silver maple. It's not. It is some kind of hybird tree that I don't remember.



Run Chad!!!! This one didn't fall in the place it was supposed to. Chad was cutting it up afterwards and with his new chain saw hit a fence post that the tree had landed on. Good thing he got a couple chains!!! Good work boys!!!!
