Yard Work

This weekend Mary Margaret learned how to mow. Taylor does a great job with the riding lawn mower, but unfortunately it has a flat. Mary Margaret was all about wanting to push mow...so I let her. I mow a square for her to follow, go inside the house, glance out the window and there are circles mowed all over the yard. How scary is this...next year she could possibly take a drivers test. I went outside and corrected the mow job, started her square again and I stayed outside, she did much better.
She really makes lawn mowing look hard! Even while mowing, she tries to be miss fashion goddess...check out the rose in her hair!



She did a good job with some supervision.
The water leak has been found! Tim and Taylor searched for and fixed the water leak while I was fixing the mower circles. Taylor was in hog heaven getting to help Tim.

Tim got muddy!

Can you believe that 42,000 gallons of water poured through this little pipe? My water bill tells me that 42,000 gallons poured through this pipe!

After "crop circle" girl got all cleaned up and we were all ready to head over to my mother-in-laws (just down the road) I decided to let her practice her driving skills. Tim looked a little unsure. All jokes aside, she does a really good job of driving. The lawn mower must cause her to just go bananas.

I had a really good mothers day. The girls went shopping Saturday and did a great job. I did not take pictures of all my loot, I will tonight. I had a nice long chat with my step-mom Charlene and a quick one with Susan (my mom) she just had surgery and was not feeling good. My brother Andy called me, but I missed his call. I tried to call him back, he was probably fishing...
Happy Mother's Day to all! I hope it was a nice one!

Miss fashion goddess indeed, that's funny.

I will NOT think about children driving cars!

TK gets my keys every chance he gets to 'sit' in the driver's seat and turn on the bells and whistles. Scares the poop outta me.
