Splitting Wood take one!

On a freezing cold day we started chopping/splitting wood early in the morning.  Here is Tim, Caleb and Brent Black Working on a pile...but from the looks of it I'm thinking this isn't take one...but what do I know
 Caleb braving the cold
 Tabitha (pregnant) and David braving the cold!!! I don't know how Tab did it since she just had the job of sitting and running the splitter.   She had to be frozen, she did have hand warmers but still!
 She could still muster a little smile
 David working hard!
 Austin thinking it is way to cold out here!  Not sure if he wants to help or not!
 Hey Caleb crawl on this log and lets see how big it is compared to you!  Caleb 7 years old!

 TJ wanted a turn too...TJ 29 years old!
 Hollie and Gavin giving their support
 Hollie trying to get Gavin to look at the snow but he was having none of it...he wanted the big toy!  The splitter
 A view from the nice warm inside!
 Trying to get the wood that was frozen to the ground to move
 Caleb hauling wood to the wood pile! It was not easy because the snow was frozen and hard to get across.
 Hollie (pregnant) and Austin stacking wood!
 Austin helping Caleb 
 Hollie and Caleb
 Don't know which was easier pushing or pulling!
 Another view from inside
 It was freezing but every one worked really hard!
 Roy Atkinson giving Brent some advice on how to split the wood!  Hollie giving Tabitha a break at the controls

 Wow...the sun is setting and they are still out there working hard!  
 Gavin wishing he was out there!
 Grandma takes the kids on a sled ride!


 Hollie didn't want to lay on the log but took a standing on the log picture!



We worked from 8 am-7 pm and still did not get done!  But we all had fun doing it!  Thanks everyone who came over and helped!!  You're the best!
