It's My Park Day 2011

My favorite community service project last year was It's My Park! Day. It’s My Park! Day is an annual community service day focused on improvements to Austin’s parks.

I was so excited about it this year I even extended the invite. Of course my cousin and her wild boys joined in on the fun (they are always the only ones brave enough.) We signed up for the Zilker Park Tree Planting. As a group over 250 trees were planted today in the park, we were directly responsible for 6. If those 6 trees make it through our hot summers and droughts, I told the boys they can one day pinic under them with their kids. I don't think they understand the impact yet but it sure did make me smile!
