Work Hard & Play Hard


We started our day with a big breakfast to gear us up for the work ahead of us.  Jude has remnants of his food on his face.

...and more remnants of lunch here.


This is what we did...laid sod.  Caleb has a coworker who just bought a new house but is having a pool put in next week so he didn't want all the newly laid sod to go to waste.  So the boys all went and pulled up the grass, loaded it in the pickup and then we all worked to get it down here.  It was quite a bit of work and we still could use A LOT more.


We had a fire to get rid of all the leaves and sticks we raked up so of course we had to have hot dogs and marshmallows.




Combination of smoke in the face and over tired baby.


The perfect golden brown!






Time to wash the pickup...I think he just finished saying something like, "put down the camera and pick up a sponge."


Everyone needs to wash their transportation.


Now time for PLAY!







The ants are back to work.


We left our awesome Rainbow play set in Denver and traded it in for a tree swing.


Getting ready to release the underdog.


There he goes!


Can you believe how long his hair is? I mean, can you believe that we've allowed him to let it get that long? I keep telling him I like it short and he says he doesn't care. Must be part of the tweener stage.




Isaac loves climbing this tree.

I had to do a double take on one of your pictures! It looked like Isaac was holding Silas in the air right above his head! I could barely see the blue swing seat! Looks like a fun day! Great pictures too!

Looks like fun. Maybe some day we will have to have a Swedish Fish competition and see who would really win!
