The Dirt Pile

Matt's been doing an overhaul of our flowerbeds the past couple of weeks. We've had to bring in some major dirt to fill them in & that's been such fun for the kids! The dump truck brought the dirt and dumped half a truckload in the front yard. Harrison loooooved getting to see that! He was fascinated with that truck being in our front yard. :)

Of course, there's no way to keep a little boy out of a pile of dirt! So, we brought out their little tools & let them go at it. Harrison has probably spent 25+hours out there the past few days. It just doesn't get much better than this to him! And, Madeleine's had her share of fun out there, too! I think almost as much dirt has made it in our house as was put in the flowerbeds....and I've had to clean the tub every night it's had soooo much dirt in it! Ha!

Check out the dirt on his little bootie. :)

The first phase is done! Yea!

What fun!!!!

I can't even imagine how happy that would make my Adam and Drew. And that many hours of them playing happily outside...maybe I need to invest in some dirt for this fall. If for no other reason than to keep them occupied!
