Clean it and Green it 2013

Drew's school was celebrating Earth Day with a Clean it or Green it event where we went to the school and helped pick up trash. Our whole family got t-shirts and donuts too! I think you were supposed to eat the donut after you did your work but in true Pistorius family style, we started our work with donut in hand.

Loved this event. I really thought it would be packed with families from the school however, when we got there, it looked like a ghost town. Few people thought this was a worthwhile event I guess so I was proud that we were there teaching our kids to keep the environment clean. Not sure how much of a difference we made but it was the principle that mattered. We were only there 45 minutes as Drew had a soccer game afterwards but we did our part and that felt good.
