Scenes from the back yard

Our back yard is a little different now, not just because of the missing tree, but also because of our new giant dirt patch where they churned out the roots of the old tree. However, the kids definitely approve of the dirt.

Here we have Lydia, modeling a hooded jacket while she naps.

Curtis eating a popsicle:

Jared with his orange popsicle:

And Amanda with a popsicle, too. Notice that she is by no means tree-deprived, despite the loss of the other tree.
