The Boys give the near by Pond a clean up

Even though we are in good old suberbia we are lucky to have natural wonders around us!  One of the boys favorite spots is a little pond at the end of our street.  It of course has frogs, the tadpoles will be everywhere soon.  A pair of ducks hang out there and Trevor has reported that the ducklings have hatched.

So yesterday afternoon we took a few moments to go pick up any trash we could find, the boys like to do this throughout the summer.

Aidan was very hard at work, he doesn't want any of the baby ducklings to get hurt on anything plastic or the tadpoles.
Oooops Aidan fell in a bit and came out with Green arm hairs!



Boys always need a red wagon

                                                                                                     good job              

                   That little black spot is snail!

And there it is not a full bag of garbage, but pretty hefty, I hope it stays clean for a bit.

  1. good for you guys! We do this a lot too. I always put on the wood's or the beach's 'voice' and say thank you to the kids. They like to imagine they are really helping 'someone' :-)
    Your pictures are lovely! x
