Dirt work

The new fire pit was christened on Christmas eve with smores and Christmas carols. It was picture book perfect but the dirty work was done the afternoon before. Jason had to get the tractor out to dig the hole and move the rocks around the pit. Work was slow going going with all the little chickens scampering about but Jason is the king of accomodating.

All the while GiGi sat demurely in her bonnet...on an old junk bus seat. That lady could look prissy in the middle of a trash dump.

We don't really support those new fangled child labor laws. We believe in an honest days work for an honest days pay. "Get back to work or no supper for you little heathens!" Actually, I think they would have paid us a full years allowance for the chance to play in the dirt for a whole week.
