Summer here in Prunetucky equates to pruning time! Caleb runs the saw and I drag the branches/debris to the burn pile out in the field. The kids had great fun with this this year. Aiden helped out a lot as he stacked logs into the wheelbarrow for firewood and helped me stack it by the shed. Then he and Liam took rides in the wheelbarrow back to the pruning site. The kids had a blast. Of course, mom and dad were exhausted after 2 days of this! Liam cracked us up when he independently placed his earplugs behind his ear (like you would a pencil) and said, "Ready, ma!" Wishing I had a picture of that! We spotted many oak apples (mutation of the oak caused by gall wasp larva). My kids love cracking these (and the oak marbles) open to find the baby wasps! Good times...who needs Disneyland, right!?!
