The only downside to having a woodstove and free wood? You have to chop it all up into pieces. So Jeremy is going to spend a little bit of time every day chopping wood. This might seen like a waste of time, but HE looks at it as a great way to stay in shape! It's a lot of work! So although he might not be out running or lifting weights, he's getting a good workout.
Well, guess what? Jeremy's job is getting a little bit easier this year. He has help. A smaller version of Jeremy helps by taking a little wheelbarrow of bark and wheeling it to the back 40 to get it out of Daddy's way. Isn't that nice? And I, take another more sturdy wheelbarrow, load the chopped wood into it, and then stack it in a neat pile.
Family teamwork. What more can you ask for? What a great way to spend some time huh?
It starts with a little woodchopping.
Sometimes the wood is covered in bark so you've got to haul it away. (Yes, Nathan really does push this wheelbarrow!)
Here's the OTHER wheelbarrow that we fill with pieces of wood and I push.
Here's the awesome wood stack. Nathan tries to help, but the pieces are just too big for him!

wow, impressive. Helping chop wood at 2... perhaps he'll be doing it all for you by 5!
