Before Grant came home my neighbors encouraged me to finish the yard and surprise Grant. I told them I was too tired to do it. My good neighbors Jimmy and Erik said”We will do it!” So it took one Saturday to rake and then the next Saturday to lay sod, plant trees, and bring in bark-a-mulch, I was so overwhelmed with the generosity of my ward and neighbors that I couldn't help but cry with gratitude. The yard was perfect!
After we raked all day we all went for a swim.
The day we layed sod it was so cold and rainy. I couldn't believe how people just dug in and got it done dsipite their misery.
Before Lace could tie the knot with her cute boyfriend we had to have family wedding shower for her. We had a blast telling her what her wedding day would be like and what her life would be like in 5 years with candy bar stories. She got some great gifts and we laughed a ton. Love you Lace!
Teaching is fun and field trips are even more fun. We had a blast playing at boondocks. We went on the bumper boats where the kids and parents ganged up on the teachers. We were drenched.
