Church Work Day

Sunday evening we had work day at our church.  Camden put on her pajama bottoms and snow boots (go figure) and happily headed to help.  Actually, she didn't want to go (she was happily playing at home), but I told her we would go dig in the dirt and she got excited.  When she compared it to the beach, I got the idea to take her beach bucket and shovels.  Best.move.ever.

I was in charge of 6 jr. high girls and sweeping, but Camden wanted dirt.  When she saw a big pile of mulch, she had a new mission.

I was working nearby, so I let her sit and dig and play in the mulch for quite a while.  She was more than content.

She took her bucketfuls over to a nearby garden spot and contributed to the landscaping.

After a brief snack break, she ran into one of her best buddies from daycare (who obviously also goes to our church).  She and Owen spent the next hour playing and "helping" as best they could.  They were extra happy when they got to use the big tools.
