In case you were wondering, yes we do have a lot of grass and no we do not have a riding lawn mower. That is until Papa Ted showed up with an everysogenerous housewarming/birthdays/everything for a while gift.
After unloading our new workhorse, we got a lesson, and then set off to start mowing. The first time we mowed, it took us about 5 hours. Daddy did most of it but let Mommy try it out a little, Abram and Katie even jumped on for short rides making the 5 hours a little more enjoyable. Lucky for us our new workhorse come with service calls...which we have already had to put to use. Good thing we know a great mechanic.
Papa Ted also fixed our blower and brought it back to us with the lawn mower. Before anybody else to get there hands on it to clean up after the mower, look who got a hold of it.
While it makes me sad that he is growing up so fast, I was also very proud that he wanted to help and be a part of the action (a major change for him). He is also really good at it, after he figured out that the blower continued to put out air even when the trigger wasn't pulled.
He has become the official blower at our house, now to get brave enough to start up the weed eater!
