Today we worked outside. Well, my parents did. I spent most of my time carrying a baby around, feeding her, changing her diaper, and then starting all over again. She was in a pretty good mood for most of the day, but she's still pretty high maintenance. Weird. So now our patio has no half-dead, dirty, creeping ivy on the little mini-fence the previous owners put up. The fence is still there, but it's completely empty. Jason wants to put berry bushes there...I'm not sure yet and am contemplating flowering climbing plants. All of the ivy that was torn out filled our garbage can, which was emptied just this morning. My dad did a pretty good job of getting it all in there, though! He tried several different techniques...

That was the hardest week of my life. I felt muscles in places that I didn't know that I had muscles! But your yard sure looked nice when we got done. We do good work! Maybe next year, Kayla can help stomp down the stuff in the trash can.
