Little Helper

This past weekend, we spent pretty much the entire weekend doing yard work...YUCK!!  My mom and dad came over, and we put them to work!  Our landscaping was a massive disaster, and they are landscaping pros.  We  just bribed them with a little Owen time, and then showed them the work they had to do.  Owen was quite the little helper, too.  He was very cooperative and a champ the whole weekend.  

Owen posing with his pet moles...their hills at least 

Helping mommy rake the grass clippings...little does he know this will be HIS job in a few years!

Taking a break to pose for the camera :)

Owen working intently on his monkey, while mommy and papaw work intently on mulching.

"Haha...I'm sure glad I don't have to work!"

Daddy whistling while he works

The finished product!  We still have most of the backyard to go :(

Your yard looks great! Do your mom and dad want to come to our house next? Or perhaps you would like to loan your services? ;) I love the picture of Owen with the moles. Guess they haven't gone away yet? :(

You all do great work. Owen is the cutest supervisor I have ever seen. Glad he was so cooperative - looks like he was having a great time in the yard.
