Yard work continues....

We've had a busy spring in our yard still clearing out a lot of "eyesores" that have been left in the yard for years (propane tanks and old sheds). We are finally getting to the fun part where we can start to add things that will make it look nicer. Last weekend, on a rare day off for Steve, we borrowed a friend's pickup truck and my men did some heavy hauling! First stop was sand for a new sandbox. Zach was able to go with Steve and he fully enjoyed the experience of riding in a real truck! (He is really interested in trucks and seems to love them all. We can't ride anywhere in town without him pointing out the "motor graders, back-hoe-loaders, cranes, dump trucks, etc." -all things that I took totally for granted before Zach was around to enlighten me!) Once they arrived at the house with the sand, and then later with mulch, Zach was very willing to help unload the truck! Zach's "help" consisted mostly of him launching sand and mulch into the air and it landing many places other than the sandbox and mulch pile (i.e. Steve's boots and face). It was a full day's work for both boys and I enjoyed watching them work together!
