weeds.

Today is yard work day.

I'm not complaining - it's a gorgeous day for yard work.  Cool, breezy, but still sunny enough for an end-of-the-summer tan :)

Remember that post I did about our beautiful flowers?

Ha.

That was before we realized that we could be traveling to Carter's country in the fall.  That was when we thought his country would be closed for months.

That was before the crazy paper chase.

The paper chase is over, and now we're working our buns off to ready our house for the new addition.

Trimming trees, cutting weeds (no - not 'pulling'.  no - these weeds require 'cutting'.), rototilling...but we had fun doing it.  Moses had fun 'helping'.

Our time together is sweet - even if we're working our buns off.

Because we know that soon - very soon, it won't just be the two of us.  So we're taking advantage of every moment we have, before our lives change forever.

So - apologies to our neighbors, for having to look at all those weeds (no - they're not trees.  they're weeds).  We've been a bit busy :)  And weeds are always the last thing on my mind.

One Thing I Know For Sure: All this yard work makes me wonder what else we can work on before Carter gets home...hmm....!  I'm making a mental list now :)
