Home Again

Immediately after we returned from Idaho, we got right back into our home improvement projects beginning with the fence.  We were lucky enough to get most all our wood given to us from Brandan's friend in Spearfish, but the boards came in 16 ft X 1 ft lengths so this required a ton of cutting.  But before we could even get to that we had to dig the post holes. Our ground is insanely hard so we rented an augur and Brandan and I wrestled that thing for a day and a half before we finished, covered in bruises...literally.  In the meantime, we let the boys have pretty free reign and they found a hose and some dirt and well....

Sport was trying to keep the weeds in check.

Sport found the mud first and when Colt saw Sport wasn't getting into trouble, he joined him.

Colt, aka "Patch"

About 10 minutes into the mud bath.

Typical Colt.


Messy Dash

Now don't get me wrong, we make sure to take time to play in addition to all our work.


Dash and Abby playing dress up in the only play clothes Abby has.


On Friday, we hosted an ice cream party in our newly fenced front yard.

Sport enjoyed the oreo he was given at the party.

On Saturday I went to Billings with some of the Relief Society ladies for the Stake Relief Society temple day.  We left at 5 am and got back around 10 pm. Brandan stayed home with the boys.  They did pretty well, even though Colt had a tummy ache in the morning and Sport was a little fussy with teething.  They actually did better than I did.  I missed them all horribly, got heat sick in Billings and started to pass out, and then came home with mastitis.  The temple is always worth it though...right?
