Cleaning Up!

On Saturday Whit took his last ride down the big dirt hills in his toy dump truck. Then he got to ride in a real tractor to take down the dirt hills.
Mom got to learn how to drive the real tractor! We started the official clean up where our new house is going to go. We pulled about 50 old posts and tore down old fences. We are not sure where we are going to put the horses this summer since the fences are down but we have to start somewhere.
Whit played all day!
The boys talking about what to tear down next!
Everyone chipped in. I never knew the kids were so destructive. They loved knocking things down with big hammers and crowbars!
The kids kept telling Mr. Hamburger that we were going to eat him for dinner in two weeks. Dad kept telling the kids to be nice to Mr. Hamburger and to stop scaring him!
What a beautiful day!
Whit loving his dump truck!

Big Dirt Hills


The weather is finally warming up enough to get started on the garden. It has been a cold spring!!!

The big dirt hills that are in our garden space now need to be moved and the kids are sad.

Whit is taking his last couple of rides.

Spring?

Levi competed in the Pine Wood Derby race again this year. He had a fancy paint job on his car!
We visited Grandma & Grandpa Hills for Spring Break! It was wonderful to get away from all our wintery weather. It actually felt like spring there!
The kids had a blast in the sand. They kept asking if we could take some home to make a sandbox.


The Mathis family had a reunion in St. George while we were down south. The kids had fun riding in and driving Great Grandpa's train.

We brought home way to much candy from the Easter Hunt. We are now trying to monitor sugar intake at our house.



While we were in Logandale we drew our house plans to scale on the blacktop. It was fun and interesting. The process helped us make quite a few changes to the plans.
