Here's the adventure we've been on for the last 6 months...
My dream-come-true for the boys...

This was the backyard back in '05 when we bought the property.
Just imagine a bunch of tall weeds and you'll see what it looked like (untouched) until February '08.

Then our friend Mitch brought his bob cat over and worked some magic, leveling things out, clearing Cedars.
And Chuck built that beautiful playscape just in time before Chandler was born.

Then, in June, Mitch came back to help us finish the project. We (Mitch) set up a parameter and put in pebbles under the playscape.

Chance tested out the pebbles for us.

Then he added another parameter for a crushed-granite trail around it.
Charlie calls it "the race track."

And last week we got the grass finished!
Well, sorta - we did the checkerboard pattern, it'll take awhile to grow in...
So here it is: the before.

the after.

We are so blessed.
