Costa Family Farm

Teamwork!

I came across my husband's note thanking the kids for all their work a couple of weekends back. (He leaves notes on the counter in the morning for children still sleeping.) I was really astounded to see the quantity of things with it all written down like that.

In a 48 hour period:

grass mowed

car washed

tires rotated

vacuuming (new vacuum)

yard picked up for Fall

children's bedrooms picked up for Lessons season to start

barn advance cleaning

pool chemicals checked & added

kitchen cabinets washed

bird feeder filled

AND my husband and I painted in our bedroom and wallpapered a wall

Then this past 3-day weekend:

tractor fixed and running

harvested garden

fields mowed w/ tractor

We're not all work and no fun. We had a beautiful harvest and barbecue dinner. movie night, attended a barbeque party on Monday the holiday, and had another home movie that afternoon. 

My husband's list just reminded me how effective a family team can be.

Woah!
