Dirt bag

A couple of Saturdays ago, Emily and I tackled this big bag of dirt and spread it around the flowerbeds. Emily was such a good helper. I was really surprised at how long she was interested in helping.

Notice how she is wearing her winter gloves. I was wearing my gardening gloves and Emmy insisted on needing to wear gloves too. Ha!

While we did that, Matt was cutting down some dead trees. Our yard looks so much better! Although Emily was really sad about cutting down the trees. She said, "That's not nice to cut trees." (She has had several lessons on how we only cut paper. :) So we promised her we could plant a new one.
