Getting back into the swing of things

I'm feeling better these days, so I made up a new chore chart at the beginning of the week for Zoe and Emily. It is much easier to get them to do dishes and clean up toys when they know they are working for ice cream. So today they got their ice cream after we went for a swim at the pool.

Matt is fixing the seats in his canoe, so he took one out of the canoe today. Zach thought it was the perfect sized ladder for him...

I'm a big fan of "incentives". When we have big projects to get done, like racking leaves or serious house cleaning, then I treat then to a trip to the candy store after the work is done. A win-win situation!
