love life
Yardwork was always done as a family in my house, and I don't really remember it ever being a negative thing. When we cleared our land, we were all out there picking rocks and throwing them into the forest, we had huge burn piles and forts and being outside working was just a fun time. I wasn't a big fan of stacking wood, but the rest of it I loved.
This afternoon I felt like my heart was just swelling, probably partially because I posted my wedding photos to facebook (they'll be here later), and because we were all doing yardwork as a family. Tim was mowing the lawn, I was weeding and feeding him water, Reagan was riding her scooter, grabbing garden bags when we needed them and running through the sprinkler. Really, this is what I dreamed for my life. Family, a yard, a home, sunshine, love, working together. Of course I thought I'd live up the road from my parents so my kids could walk to their grandparent's house, but we can't have everything.
I need to jump in the shower, I'm absolutely filthy. Covered with dirt and bits of grass and dust and probably spiders. Then make dinner, red curry with chicken and rice and veggies. Then Reagan heads to her mom's house. This weekend felt too short.
Our yard looks great though!!! (If you ignore the fact that we need a big truckload of fill out back!)

It was such a gorgeous day! Hot, but not too hot.
