Fun in the Backyard

The weather has been a little crazy lately.   There have been many storms.  So whenever there is a warm day or at least a break in the rain I have been taking the boys out to play.  The boys absolutely love being outside and playing and it is so good to take them out of the house and just let them play!

The backyard has been a gradual work in progress.  One of the tough things we've been dealing with for the last couple of years is the explosion of the tick population.  Ever since the district got rid of the coyotes in the housing there have been a lot more bunnies and jack rabbits, which means more ticks.  Jane and I have been working on clearing away the weeds so that the boys would be able to play without fear of getting one of the parasites on them.  Jane has done most of the work and I am very grateful for her efforts.
















 Tonight I decided to take the boys down to the football field after playing in the yard.  Walking with Xander he suddenly said, "30! 40!"  I wondered what he was talking about when I realized that those were the numbers we were passing as we were walking.
