So, what do you think, will we have enough dirt? After taking a look at this pile Greg gave up the idea of shoveling and went and rented a small backhoe. It was definitely worth it. Instead of ending up with a husband with a broken back I was able to get a happy husband, happy kids (because they were able to ride with Dad) and a almost completed garden project. All that is left is to level out the dirt and rig up a sprinker system for the garden. Oh wait, or is that just the beginning? Half way through moving the dirt from the frontyard to the backyard Greg stopped and asked me if we had just created a lot of work for ourselves. Huh, a little too late for that question. We are starting to take orders from the neighbors to see what they want to plant in the garden... or maybe we could just have them rent their own plot! :) Anyway, things are coming along and Greg can't wait for our Dads to come in October for the baby blessing. Don't worry guys, he is excited to see you, but he's also excited to have some extra hands to build the next project...a shed.

Okay, maybe I missed something. Why is all the dirt in the front yard? And you are trying to move it to the back? I'm sure the kids were in heaven with the tractor, I know Austin would be.
Sorry, the dirt is in the front yard because that is as far as the dump truck could bring it. Although it would have been nice to have it dumped right in the garden in the backyard.
I'm putting in my order for what I want in your garden- I want tomatoes and for you to take care of them for me, then make them into yummy salsa for me too!! This is what neighbors are for right?!
