Having Fun with a Bad Situation

Many of you know about our backyard fiasco. To make a very long story short, we haven't had a backyard to play in yet because it is too wet. The builders tried a couple of things last summer that never worked, so they are trying something new. We are hopeful this is the end and we have a beautiful green yard to play in soon.

Some good things have come because of this mess. Like...........

I got to sit on this "beet onj tacto" Translation=big orange tractor.

And I get to help mommy water the new plants out front. If our yard was normal, our sprinklers would do this for us, but now we have to fill this big orange bucket in the kitchen and haul it outside. I'm going to miss doing this!

Right now we do all our playing in the front yard which is entertaining because they are building more houses down the street. Ellis and I love watching the big trucks drive by.



When all the hard work and playing outside is done, we like to relax and watch a little Cars.

The yard thing is still an issue?! UGH! Glad your boys are making the best of it, anyway.

That sucks about the yard! At least you have some grass & Kaden gets a real expensive toy for free (for a while anyway). LOVE the picture of the boys in matching shorts on the couch!
