Hay Relocation Situation

25 bales of hay.  A snow storm.  Two toddlers.

The perfect recipe for wearing the socks off kids who are just too excited about Christmas.

After a lot of this....


and even more of that...


 we finally got down to the business of moving this:


into the hay loft.

Sharing the tasks just did not work, so I basically introduced Liam and Seamus to Fordism.

Liam's job was this:

He chose this.  I swear this is not child labour.

Seamus' job was this:

Returning the empty sled.
Seamus wanted so badly to pull the hay bale on the sled but it was too heavy.
I loaded and unloaded the sled and generally kept the peace.  And back and forth we went.  We made 8 trips.  At that point, the boys suggested that we should leave some of the "fun" for Daddy or he might feel left out.  So, we went inside for a chocolate dipped snicker doodle.  Yum!
