Yard Work?

John spent the morning mowing the yard.  Afterwards he hooked up the wagon to our old tractor (it has no blades--it's just for "fun") and hauled Luci around, looking for blackberries.

The definition of spoiled!

Water, cushy seating, Barbie dolls, ear protection, and an umbrella.  Oh, and the ride, too.

John found enough wild blackberries to make a good cobbler for tonight.  Luci picked one or two; she got enough to be able to say she helped.

Life, Lately

Today was soccer again--Luci's coach and her daughter could not make it due to a family emergency, so she asked the boys to coach the team today. They said the biggest part of their job was re-tying shoes and telling the kids to "kick the ball the other way!" Four-and-five-year-olds are pretty funny.

I was in charge of making sure everyone got to play every position and take breaks. It looks easy when the coaches do it, but it was like solving a Sudoku puzzle, in pen, while riding a bike. Crystal, you have all my admiration! We missed you and Tressa this morning.

Before the game.
JT has had so much fun riding his tractor all over the place. This is our very old riding lawnmower. The blades are removed, so it is truly a little tractor now. He spent Wednesday afternoon riding all over the yard. When JT goes next door to play with Clay, he takes it down the hill and across the creek all the way to the neighbors' front door.

Looking back on our house. The kids and I went to the creek today on a top-secret mission (details on June 2!).
