Our Labor Day

...for that's what it truly was, a day of Labor.
Our builder left us a ton of bricks, so we thought we would put them to good use. We edged along the shrubs and tree in our front yard. It was really hot, but it was well worth it. We are really happy with how it turned out.
Taelee of course had fun dumping dirt in the bucket just like Daddy.

BEFORE:

Grass was starting to grow into the dirt.



What a cute little helper!

AFTER:

We think that it added a lot of curb appeal, and best of all it was FREE!

We had a bunch of rain last night and today, and ALL of the bark stayed where it should!
