Wood.

Over the weekend Mike helped a friend remove a downed tree from his yard.

Apparently a bunch of the neighborhood was involved in loading up the tree into the trailer and truck after Mike cut it up with the chain saw. The guys even came with Mike on the first trip to help him unload it. He brought some of it home to use as firewood.


This is the second load ... bigger logs.


Look at that load of wood ... there's to be some serious firewood chopping to be done.


Give a boy some wood in a trailer and his imagination runs wild ... Griffin had fun playing, climbing and being "king of the mountain" on top of the logs.


Mike doesn't mind a little manual labor ... however this new log splitter is sure to help with the time involved chopping the wood to fit into our fireplace.


Here we see Mike and Griffin working together.

And how about a little scrap candy??

  4. Whew! Looks like somebody has worked hard and has a lot more hard work ahead of them. All that wood will make for some warm toasty fires though! Love the picture of Griffin playing king of the wood chunk!

  7. It looks like you guys have the perfect place for a little boy to grow up! He always seems to be having a blast, especially with helping daddy.
