Construction Zone

On Saturday Chris' Dad brought his backhoe over so that he and Chris could prepare our backyard for a patio and some flowerbeds. The kids had their noses pressed against the glass windows for 2 hours before Mommy would let them outside to go for a ride (it was 25 degrees when they started!) They rode and watched and rode again on the "tractor" as Joshua called it.

The day turned out to be relatively mild and nice and Walker was enjoying a snooze in the sun until someone decided to climb on him.

Daddy hung the swings on the swingset again. Spring is here!

Autumn pushed the planer on the gravel once everything was dug and spread.

And Joshua supervised to make sure nothing went wrong. A fun day for all (well the kids anyway) and everyone slept very soundly that night. (I'll post pictures of the patio when it's completed).
