Friday Flashback

December 2004
DIG IT, uh oh oh, DIG IT

We had just built a pool in our backyard & were in the process of landscaping it.
13 tons of rock had just been dumped in front of our driveway, so we had the boys round of some friends to help us
DIG IT.
Can I Pause Here a Moment to Say We Have The Best
Friends & Neighbors ?

In no time at all we had upwards of 15 kids, shovels in hand, ready to DIG IT.
Mike & Scott directed traffic & ran the wheelbarrows.
We put on the appropriate tunes and...




In no time flat our 13 tons of rock had dwindled to a small pile of loose stones.


We gave each boy a $1 bill and a can of rootbeer...
you would have thought they won the lottery.


Thank you fellas !

Whistle while you work


Okay, so everyone wasn't humming a happy tune (the whole time), but it felt good to see the kids "dig in" and help me & Mike run a new sprinkler line in our yard. Hopefully the fruits of our labor (besides the warm, fuzzy... sweaty feeling) will be a lush green backyard in the near future. And a new swingset... MIKE... hint, hint.
