Mulch Mania
Most of our weekend can be described with one word: MULCH.
We came home Saturday afternoon to see this in our driveway:
That's right; it's TWELVE cubic yards. You're probably asking yourself, "How is that red car going to get out of the garage?" That's a good one. I'm just glad it was Nathan's car, not mine.
Keegan thought this was all great fun and soon turned the pile into a slide. Nathan also had some trees and bushes delivered. Notice the one on the left in the pic below? I don't know what it weighed but I couldn't even get it to budge an inch when I pulled it with all my might (and I drink milk).
We used anyone that could help. And I mean anyone....
Nathan and Keegan worked all day Sunday after church and by Sunday evening, we were down to this much. Just enough to get the cars by..... barely......
Nathan also dug a humongo-jumbo hole for that tree bulb to fit down into. It was about 4 hours of work just to plant this bush!! He has more trees to plant later, so feel free to stop by with your shovels to help. I'll feed you.
TA-DA!!!!!!!!
I think I'm most impressed that Nathan was able to drag this HEAVY bush across the lawn to it's official planting location. He's going to be sore tomorrow. He's so macho. Or should I say MULCHO?!
I did help a little and managed to take a few loads of mulch to various flowerbeds between juggling the kids.
Well, Nathan is still outside. I'd better go check and make sure he hasn't fallen into the mulch pile! He's my mulcho, mulcho man!

Well, ya see - I ordered 12 yards of mulch and a humongous tree. They dumped it all in front of my garage and blocked my car in. Honest.
