Good Clean Fun

One of our New Year's Resolutions was to do a monthly family service project and we managed to squeeze one in for January. We like to go on little hikes at the top of our neighborhood and have noticed a lot of junk up there lately, so we gathered some of our friends and had a Saturday morning clean-up session. The kids were all great contributors and I think that we made a noticeable difference... the tough dads hauled off a sofa and a truck bed liner, too.

What a wonderful family you are to do something like that each month. That is such a great thing to teach your kids and so cool that you included so many others. Love that you are cleaning up nature as well, it always makes me SO SAD to see people trash our earth!

Inspiring, I would love to do something like that but then I can never think of a service that our whole family can do. Great Idea.
