Lance's brother, Ivan, brought over some equipment to help Lance do some dirt work around the house. The interior project is winding down, so now on to outside projects before the weather breaks and farming begins.
Ivan dug out the two tree stumps in the new driveway.
The girls watched Daddy haul the stump to the pile!
Then they worked on the slopes and grade for several envenings trying to get the major "landscaping" done. Ivan told me "thou shalt leave no inch of Christa's front yard unturned." I laughed when he said it, but he was serious there is very little grass left around here!
They filled in quite a bit of dirt next to the house, filled in around the wing walls for the basement, pulled up some old sidewalk, and worked on grading the land away from the walk-out basement so the water runs to the ditch instead of to the house.
Thank you, Ivan and Angel for your help with our dirt work!
I haven't gotten great pictures of the outside since all the work is complete, because the equipment went back home just before the snow over spring break and then it started in raining. Every time I think about taking outside pictures it is raining!
