What's that growing in our yard....

Its official! We now have our yard in! Yeah! Steve has done a great job! This summer we had to remove about 6 inches of dirt off the whole front yard because our lot was the last one to be developed on our street, so it was used as the road base (which I'm told basically is where they dumped lots of gravel for the streets to be paved). We had topsoil brought in, leveled the yard, had curbing put in, and planted grass! We even got a little tree! Each day as we look outside to see the progress of our grass! Jackson loves playing in it! Our neighbors boys call Steve "Farmer Joe" because he was always out on the tractor smoothing out the dirt! Here are a few pictures of our green yard! It was a long project, but well worth it!

Jack's first Pumpkin Patch

The other day we went to a pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins to carve for Halloween! We went with some of our good friends, the Thaxtons! Jackson had a blast walking through the fields of pumpkins! Everywhere you looked there were pumpkins! We finally found our three and loaded them in the cart. This place also had a hay bale maze for the kids and fun picture boards to take pictures in front of! This Halloween will be fun! Last year Jackson and I were sick! So this year he will be able to experience the fun of trick or treating! Happy Halloween to everyone!
