We would love to hear from you!!! In this episode, Aric and Angie discuss various topics that happen during summertime. They start by diving into new beginnings and then move on to Angie's experience with her horse, Phoenix, and her learning journey as a horse owner (a little embarrassing)! Aric and Angie talk through chores for the summer and a recent add to the Crew's chore list that might just become a weekly task! They share funny stories about their kids' cleaning mishaps and talk about the value of chores in teaching life skills. They also mention listening to a podcast about dealing with change and how they incorporated it into their kids' chores. A fun and light-hearted episode.
