Getting birch logs for Aunt Bippi

This morning I pulled handles for my mugs.  I had 11 big mugs and 1 small mug.  I trimmed pots and then took pictures of the few pieces of pottery that turned out in the firing. We posted those on etsy.  I put handles on my mugs and was almost finished when I had to go get the boys.  I was talking to Vikki on the phone and she said she really wanted to find some birch logs.  She wanted to put them in her wood holder by her fireplace.  Adam said we had some that consumers had cut down by the ditch down our road.  We drove down there and to look for them.  Eli climbed up the steep other side of the ditch through picker bushes.  He threw them down in the ditch to Adam and Adam threw them up to me.  I loaded them in the van.  At home I washed the mud off them.  Later Jared cut them up with the chain saw.  They look so cute.  We made chili for dinner which was yummy.  Adam ate turkey chili with me.  The boys loved the chili.  We went outside to play a game of soccer.  Read to the boys and tucked them in bed.
