Mother's Day...



I asked for a compost bin. That's right - a homemade compost bin! We throw so many newspapers, banana peels, egg shells, and tea bags away in this house that I knew there was a better use for all of it besides the regular old trash. These are all great items for making compost. After doing some research, we had some simple instructions and Keith and Connor got started. Connor loved helping Daddy put it together.













After it was finished, we started collecting leaves around the yard.

We gathered some shredded newspapers and threw them in too.

We then decided we needed a break so we went next door and jumped on the trampoline for a bit!

It was a GREAT day!!
