Fun at the park and leaning a lesson.

Garrett's Cub scout troop met at one of our local parks to do a service project well with the price of gas I decided to take all the kids and stay while Garrets troop cleaned the park. Of course I brought my camera and snapped a few pix. I like the before and after pic of Ben jumping on the trampoline.

While Garrett was goofing off in the mirror I snapped this pic I think it looks very cool the way I captured both Garret and I in the reflection.Now the the lesson part. I am so sick of hearing the kids bicker. I finally had enough and when Robbie and Madie started fighting last night I said tomorrow you will have to do every thing together. So this morning I tied a little cord around one of there hands , there was only a little bit of slack so if one pulled one way the other would have to fallow. Well the were not getting a long very well at all at first in fact Robbie said he would rather be grounded for a week than be stuck with Madie.

After they both sat and pouted for a while They came to the conclusion that if they worked together they could have fun at the park. I was very suprised what they could do together with just a little tam work. I think they were just as suprised. They ended up having a lot of fun together.I think they learned a good lesson I hope that we will have less fighting in our home.
