The kids and I were driving into town Saturday to see Jared at the shop and we were talking about all the trash on the sides of the road. I really think that something must have happened with the trash truck on Friday, because all the sudden our nice country roads were littered with fresh trash. So the boys and I decided we had to do something to help. We told Jared our plan and decided that would make a great Family Home Evening for Monday. Jared's parents came over to watch Katie and Ethan who might have enjoyed the beautiful weather, but wouldn't have really been much help cleaning up the yucky trash. We did a mile of road down and back. And filled up 4 trash bags! That's a lot of trash. Now every time we drive down our road, someone mentions how nice and clean it looks. It really was a nice service project. And the weather was GORGEOUS!! Thank goodness it's spring!
