Josh and I worked in the yard for about 6 hours and while tiring, it was so satisfying. Okay, 6 hours, "so tiring?" Sounds lame, but we were shoveling dirt and rocks and breaking up roots the whole time, not just pulling weeds or something. We started by jogging to Home Depot with the 3 kids, bought two of the cutest little "real" shovels for kids, put those in the stroller, and jogged back. I wish we could have weighed the stroller, Josh was super man! Esp because we had to push it over a "switchback" like ramp over a bridge.
The novelty for using the cool little shovels wore off after about 30 min with the kids, so we had them help us fill up 2 wheelbarrows of dirt for a snack and 3 for lunch. It was fun to work together as a fam, Rhett even joined us in his exersaucer.
It reminded me of Saturday's growing up, we were always working in the yard. While I grumbled about it, I was always so happy afterwards and loved seeing our handy work--which is why I wanted the girls to join us.
We celebrated with hot dogs and smores over a bon fire (that's a bit exaggerated of a description for what we had going). It was such a good day. I wish I took a picture!
