We'll start with this picture...
This is Daniel. He makes me laugh. A lot. :)
Jacob had lost his two front bottom teeth last Fall. One of his top teeth started to come loose in December and it took until March for it to finally fall out! I have never seen a tooth take so long to fall out. And it didn't even come out on it's own - Dylan had to give it a little yank. It was just hanging on by a tiny root and was spinning around, so he convinced Jacob to let him pull it. It must have been more than ready to come out because Jacob said it didn't even hurt when Dylan pulled it. Here it is the beginning of June, and the new tooth hasn't come in yet. His other front tooth has been loose since March with no signs of falling out any time soon. I think he must be trying to set a record for the longest time to lose teeth.
Now the biggest project that has been going on around here is our backyard makeover. I wish I could say that it is some fancy project, but no. We just needed to grow some grass. It is a much bigger project than it sounds, though. Allow me to show you the before pictures:
Look at the beautiful... red clay!
I mean, who doesn't want so much erosion to occur that you start to have a yard full of rocks? Wait... what do you mean rocks don't make a good playground for children?
Everyone likes a nice river running through their backyard, right?
OK, enough with the boring pictures of our formerly lame backyard. Tomorrow, I will post the during and after pics. I know, I know - you're on the edge of your seat.
