Workin' in the Yard 'n' Garden

Last evening, Rowen and the children worked hard in the garden and yard while I was sewing on the wedding dresses. Here Rowen is pulling weeds from the green beans on his hands and knees.
Jason, Emily, and Beth also worked hard on the green bean rows. Jeffrey was on the deck taking the pictures and casting the shadows. (Hard work for him! HaHa He was already cleaned up from his day of lawn mowing, so we gave him dishes duty!)
After the garden work was done, they moved to the front yard where our Linden tree needed some trimming. Beth had the opportunity to use the chain saw to cut up the branches Rowen had cut down. Here you see her "getting up her nerve!"
Success! And what fun it was!
It was Jason's first time too. It was a "thrill a minute." Then they tied the cut branches in bundles.
The tree looks better now and will not impede the sunlight to the mound as much as it has been.This picture may better show what Rowen's windshield suffered through the tornado.
