Neighbors

After all the hard work on Monday, I was ready to take a break from the mulching! We finished off one pile, but still had another pile to distribute to the back. At about 10:45 am, I had a knock on my door. It was my neighbor Sue! I had borrowed her wheelbarrow the day before (because our BRAND new one kept getting a flat tire...) so she knew we were in the midst of mulching mayhem. She said she had a few hours before taking her kids to the pool and did I want any help with the mulch!! I'm not one to turn down an offer of help, so back outside we went! Caleb was taking his nap and we were able to knock it all out!! With both of us working together, two wheelbarrows going, and a few extra kids thrown in to help, we finished it up. The sad news is that we still have to get some more mulch - can you believe it - but we're almost there! The great news is that it's looking great out there! :) So thankful for neighbors willing to go the extra mile! :)
Sue's youngest - Samuel - is a few months younger than Callie. They're pretty cute together! :)
