SO WORTH IT!

Remember all those tons of rock we shoveled? All that back breaking labor, the sore muscles, the complete exhaustion at the end of the day, the endless dirt, the tilling and raking and shoveling and seeding and watering? It was all worth it. I now have a beautiful soft green carpet of thick grass in the back yard for the boys to play on and in. It's so much prettier. I planted vines along the posts and in the back corners and sunflowers along the back wall that are still coming up but are doing quite well. The only thing that would make it any better are some trees. We are still toying with that idea, it depends on how long we end up staying here. I know at least that we have followed the prophets counsel to beautify our surroundings. It's so pretty and cooler back there too.
