Our Family Project

We had a fairly slow weekend (except for the usual karate, gymnastics, church, etc.)so I decided it was time for us to start one of our family projects for the year. This summer we are going to do some major yard renovations AS A FAMILY. I figured if the Duggars can build a house while raising 15 children we can fix the yard.
Though today was just the very beginning, eventually we want to clear the back yard and put up a fence to give the kids more room to play. The kids had fun today but the girls only lasted less than a half an hour. Patrick was the trooper though, he really helped the whole time doing what ever he was asked to do as best he could. Hopefully by the end of next weekend we will be ready to put down top soil and plant grass seed.
Here are a few pictures of the day.



Ella. Patrick and Isabella working hard!

Our precious baby. Ilana slept throught the adventure but we had to include a cute picture of her at dinner. She was very excited that Ella was sharing her popsicle with her.
