What A Mess

Two of my flower beds that we have been working on. The top one still needs ALOT of work!!

Okay, so we are building a safe room in the new addition, so we had to have a bunch of cement blocks delivered to the house. Well, the ground was really wet, so when the guy brought the fork lift in, well....you can see for yourself, he TORE UP my yard!!!
Spot number two that is completely torn up.
The new addition is going here off the back of the house.
This is part of the back yard, or what I call, the swamp. It is the lowest part of our yard and all of the water collects here. Our ditch needs dug out and we need tons and tons of dirt hauled in. So not only are we putting on a new addition, we need to do an extreme home makeover on our yard.
We are hopefully getting rock on Monday and then poring concrete on Tuesday. Pray that it does not rain and that the ground dries up some. Otherwise my yard is going to have even more really big ruts in it!! We had all of the lumber delivered today and our trusses are ordered.

How exciting! And you better be sure when they pour the cement, if you can find a place for the girls to put hands print in for memories you better do it. I think that is something really sweet you can always look back on...their personal touch:)

Sorry I never called, I will tomorrow, the weekend came and it was hectic as always!
Love you, miss you:)
