On Saturday Dallin planted four new trees in our back yard. Last year about this time he planted two peach trees, but Lucy dug them up and chewed on the trunks and they died. This year he planted two peach trees and two pear trees. I'm excited to have some shade and some fruit back there. He put Jacob to work in the beginning and then slowly gained more helpers that wanted to play in the dirt.
Poor Lucy had to be chained up on a rope for a couple of days until we got the fencing up around the trees. But it's her own fault after mangling the trees last year.

Zach helped plant one of the trees for cub scouts, but somehow this is the only good picture I got of him. This was the top of one of the dead trees that they dug out.
On Monday I put up this fencing around the trees and thankfully she hasn't tried to touch it even once.
Zach was bored on Monday evening after we put away laundry and decided that Landon would like a ride. He pushed him around for almost an hour. Landon was in heaven of course. Landon's favorite thing to do is sit somewhere and pile toys all around him, so this was perfect for him. The kids have done it for him a couple of times since then, so I think we have a new activity.
Zach parked him right in front of the book shelf where he could reach and get new books. He stayed there until I took him out to get ready for bed.

That's a cute little "laundry bus" (and an even cuter occupant!)
