How much wood can a Woodchuck chuck?

Since our freak snowfall we have been very busy cleaning up our yard and trying to get things put back together...It is over a week later and we are STILL working...

I Learned how to use a chain saw.. And I successfully learned how to stack piles and piles of wood...

... What you don't see is there is a pile stacked just as high behind this one...

Yesterday was a lovely day we cleaned out our garden...

....Tore out all the old tomato and pepper plants...and piled them in the compost bin...

The boys decided to "paint" with mud while I cleaned up sticks and leaves...at first they used sticks... then they used their hands.. and at some point it looks like they just used their whole bodies....

Somehow I can't help but think he still looks super cute <3... Now Connor was just as messy but he did not want his picture taken...

I also worked hard with Connor to get the "cabin" back together...He had dreams of building a real Log cabin from our sticks, but instead we build a "fence" around the bottom of the cabin.

All in all it was a good productive day.. Riley basically had a bath in the kitchen sink.. but he laughed the whole time... maybe he should always get his hair washed in the kitchen sink...
