Tractors & Diggers

Today we have been enjoying the beautiful weather while beginning the landscape process on our yard (yay! wahoo! yipee!). 'Steve the Builder', a contractor, friend and member of our ward came with his mini-excavator to help build our rock wall. Jonah was in heaven watching the tractor move rocks, dig and move around the back yard. He even had a chance to drive it himself (Christmas in May!). We are grateful and excited to begin putting together a yard! Thanks to my sweet husband as well for doing most of the manual labor (while his pregnant wife hobbled around directing traffic). Jess - you have incredible work ethic that I pray our kids pick up! Here are some pics from the day...

Good riddance 'pokies'! Bring on the lush carpet of GRASS!
