Just serve

On Saturday I took the kids to the local park and we did a service project for about 3 hours. I carried Mac on my back most of the time while we raked and shoveled bark all over the dog park. 

The kids did great. Helped awhile and played awhile. 

It was a good day teaching these kiddos how to serve others and not just themselves. Thanks to justserve.org for this fun experience. 

Garden for grandpa great

The Spanish missionaries in our area are always looking for service opportunities. I decided I could use their help to plant a small garden for my grandparents. 

It took 2 hours and a lot of digging to clear this out and get it planted. They were good workers and we had fun doing it. 

We planted an "early garden" so anything I could find that said early on the package. Carrots, radishes, peas, cilantro, onions, potatoes, and then some tomatoes for good measure. 

Hopefully it turns out. If not, it was a good experience for us and we will do better next time!
