SOO.... most of you guys know we started the building process about a year ago, and one of the biggest hold ups before we decided was the outrageous cost of the lots out here! Granted, they are larger than a lot of subdivisions, and typically the builder does a great job in the development. SOMETHING went awry with our lot however, and it appears there is no such thing as drainage!!! So, considering the amount of rain we have had the past few months, our sod is just NOT taking, and we pretty much have little ponds ALL over the front and back yard! VERY irritating... and Jared handles it much better than I do. Okay... I won't go any further with my irritation!
Well, in an attempt to "fix" the yard that was supposed to be "move in ready" for us, we hauled in a load of sand/dirt mixture and rented some equipment to spread it. Of course, I'm observing all of this while laying on the couch, but at least maybe we are on the slow track to getting our yard fixed!
And.... since we have a huge pile of very sandy dirt in our yard now, where do you think Maclain has been ALLLL day... literally for hours now!!?? That's right, digging away! He helped Daddy for about 2 minutes shoveling dirt into the equipment, but then took a break... permanently! :) I took these pics about 15 minutes into his play time thinking he'd get bored of it soon. Well... you should see him now! Caked on dirt from head to toe! Who needs sunscreen now??
I HATE the yard situation, but it's so fun to see Maclain having such a blast!
