More Happy Housework!!

We did more yard work this past weekend. Ugh...
There were about 6 stumps Craig has dug up over the past week. This weekend we decided to get the last 2 out of there.
After buying a second shovel to replace the one Craig broke while digging up the other stumps, we went to work.

Craig got one stump up and went to work on this beast.
About 45 minutes into digging on that stump, the ice cream man came by!!
Can you pick out the irony in this picture?
Craig was very excited about getting his Lemon Chiller...
See!!
And yes, that is a small Sham Wow under his hat.
This is the area I worked on...
And dug all these up with a small shovel..it's harder than it looks.
And this was Craig's working area...
And his 2 stumps!!
After that feat Craig rested a little....
Now here is something I have learned. I never would have thought that you have to PURCHASE dirt!! I thought you just dig a hole and go at it. AND...I also learned there are many different types of dirt. Who knew!
After unloading 12 bags of topsoil and 4 bags of some sort of manure/dirt mix, Craig took another break. I went to Calloway's and got a Hibiscis bush!
Craig got up to plant the bush
And was very happy this was the last of the yard work for the day
Ta-Da!!
It will have dark orange flowers to match our Longhorns flag!

And here are a few pics from the wedding that I came across.
See how serious everyone was before the ceremony?
Logan had too much fun. He couldn't contain himself.
The happy couple getting back from their limo ride!!
