Workin Boots

We got home from work today and saw Uncle T at Mr. Matt's house. Uncle T and Mr. Matt were cutting and trimming trees. John had to check out the situation. From the deck he yelled "Mr. Matt! What are you doing? I need to get some energy. And then I'm coming to help!"

He started to eat his dinner. Had two bites and said "I've got enough energy now. I'm going to get my workin boots." I told him no. He needed to eat all his dinner and then he could help. He ate as quickly as he could and he asked if he could be excused. He found his workin boots and asked me to help him. We went outside and John said "we are going to go the secret way. Follow me!" Mr. Matt's backyard runs into ours so we walked through our neighbors yard to get there. Gillian would not walk because she was afraid of the sound of the chainsaws. We found Mr. Matt in the backyard cutting down branches. Uncle T was in the bucket truck cutting the limbs off the trees. John got to meet Buddy (Mr. Matt's dog) and started to help right away. He moved branches from the front yard to the backyard. At one point he had a branch in his hand and the leaves brushed the top of Buddy's head. I told him to be careful and he said "I was just tickling him."
