Wednesday April 1 we had Anya and Joelle, and Joelle finally mastered the hover board! She absolutely loves it! When she gets to our house, usually the first thing she asks is "Wheresa baby?", then second, she goes running to Josh's room to get the hoverboard. Which can also be a slight problem, because Clay also thinks he owns the hoverboard so there are sometimes fights over it. So as a result of fights and little kids always falling off, the hoverboard is now sometimes conveniently "lost" on Wednesdays:)
We have been doing lots of tree trimming, so Josh's task is to haul away all the branches.
Anya loved being outside! She even took her morning nap out there.
You can see that Joelle is in the middle of a very high jump right now, but don't let that deceive you into thinking she's coordinated. She was probably sprawled all over the ground in the next second:)
Four-wheeler rides are always a hit.
You saw from the last post that we finally took down the last pine tree, so the next step was to grind down the stumps and reseed that area.
More branches to haul away.
And more trimming.
We started planting the garden Wednesday afternoon. We did onions, peas, lettuce, spinach, and a row of green beans. The rest will wait until warmer days.
There was lots of this going on all week. People out enjoying the sunshine and warmth!
And it's reseeded! I gotta say though, there is only one thing wrong about tearing out the last pine tree. It made a prime spying/hideout spot while playing capture the flag/kick the can/gray wolf. Oh well. We'll get over it. If we have to.
Josh dug out Grandpa's old mower from the shed and decided he'd do a little mowing. I can hardly imagine having to mow our entire property with a push mower like that. I have to admit I really like just sitting on a nice big zero-turn listening to music and doing as minimal work as possible.
And now we're back to 40 degrees and windy! Woohoo! *heavy sarcasm :)*
