SATURDAY, IT WAS WARM...

The internet connection at our new house is not the greatest, so I have been trying to finish this post for weeks. These pics were taken on a nice warm Saturday in February. So even though it says this was posted on February 22nd, it's actually March 6th.

We woke up to unusually warm weather, so immediately it was decided we would work on the yard. First on the list, build the new Fire-pit. We took the stone from the old house (it was used as the little retaining wall around our mulch bed) to make the new pit. We also took brick and concrete blocks to create a sitting wall. The bricks were from our old Fire-pit, and the blocks were already on the property.
Just love the look of stacked stone.
The other big project was clearing and defining the path between our house and our neighbor's. The Usas' are good friends of ours, so we wanted to make getting to each other's homes easier.
Of course, while Marc and I were working, the boys were busy being boys and getting dirty.


Grey was COVERED in dirt... literally from head to toe.
Random cool pic of a pine tree's bark.
Our neighbor Bonnie got out her silver Spray paint and jazzed up a few pine cones.
The boys LOVE to visit the Usas' and play with their wheelbarrows.

Grey actually has a seed spreader. Love how this shot show's his twisted underware.
I'm always practicing my photography, but Luke's not always willing...
that's better.
Another random pic.
Trying to photograph a moving target is REALLY hard.

Grey LOVES the rocks in Jim and Bonnie's driveway.

He's working on a Rock Angel.
More practicing...


And my favorite shot of the day...

love how you can see the look of determination in his one little eye... and his dirty little hand.

This was a great day of wonderful weather, and being very productive, but something white and wet was just around the corner.
