Getting Ready

So, this week is our first ever Eisenhauer-Mecham family reunion and we are having it here at the old home stead. So, we have been getting ready. We have been doing some mowing and raking and hauling. We have also been moving wood and cutting wood and burning wood. We are about ready. (Good thing, it starts tomorrow!) As you can see the boys are totally excited!

This log needed to be broken down into more smaller logs. The boys got tired of sawing and decided to try breaking it!

Here Sam is standing on one end and David is getting ready to jump on the other end. (Luke was not quite enough weight!) They did succeed in breaking the log.

Did you know when you cut a log part way and then put something under it to help you break it this something has a name? No, I mean a real name. It is a fulcrum. I know weird! Millie
