Yard Work

Happy Spring! It was so exciting when all the snow melted in our yard a few weeks ago. We did, however, find some surprises that were lurking underneath it all. We had a few piles of cement poured onto the yard, piles of scrap lumber, and just junk overall. It was driving me nuts to look outside at it all, and Derek told me to wait until the all the snow melted before we removed everything. I think these pictures were taken the Saturday following the 'big melt.'

Bryon came over with some dirt and helped get rid of all the junk. Here they are removing cement, and you can see on the very left is more cement, it was a little ridiculous how much there was.
Evelyn and I helped out by sitting on the back steps cheering Derek on.

Then she decided that she needed to ride on the tractor and she was so happy. She is such a farmers daughter.

I don't have any 'after' pictures, and yes, I know I could go take one right now. I'll just tell you that it looks great now, all clean and even. Next job, sprinklers...
