Remember this post from last Fall? It's finally happened! This was Tony's Anniversary gift to me. Last Saturday my mom and dad came and helped us pick up the wood with their truck and helped us load and unload it. Then needed to get home and finish their own yard work before the cold weekend so Brook stayed and helped us complete our backyard. We couldn't have done it without any of them. They've been so great with all the help and support. It's so nice to finally feel like our home is finished after four years! We have nice grass, with all the sprinklers in, and now a beautiful fence. I'm so glad Tony knows how to do all that stuff. He did it all by himself. But we couldn't have done it with out my Dad bringing his tractor over and tilling the ground for us a few times, and my brother Zack who came to level it out after it had settled. And my mom and sister Brook, and my brother Dale who came and helped us rake it and level some more and pick up all the rocks. We're so blessed to have such wonderful families so close to help with all things. Thanks again to all of you for your help. Now Pilot has a place to run and play. It's been a week now and it's still not old every time I walk by a window I have to stop and stare and smile. It feels more like home now. No more midnight pranks from teenage kids in the neighborhood coming up and pounding on the sliding glass door and scaring me. OK, it only happened twice and it was a year ago now, but still, it won't happen again. Yay!
