Some of my friends think blogs are a little ridiculous (especially when the subject is one's daily life). I don't take any offense at this and understand the perspective. Where else besides a mommy's blog would you see the headlines, "Diapers, spit ups, and more" or "Our trip to the library". However, we keep writing on our blogs because we know that someone somewhere cares - and they want to know how walking the dog went and they care about that new haircut and want to see pictures. So this post is to inform you that yesterday WE MOWED OUR LAWN!!! (see what I mean?) This is the first time we've done this as a married couple and it was funny to see the small conflicts arise (based on Daniel's ideas of how a lawn should be mowed, and my knowledge of the
RIGHT way a lawn should be mowed - thanks mom and dad!) anywho, we bought a mower on Friday (a Toro 20066 to be exact) it's red and shiny! Then got to work.
We were also wondering how Wrigley would respond since he'd never been around one before and he's afraid of just about everything. Well, he'd either just sit and watch or follow us around. In fact, when we moved to the front, we had to put him in the bed of Daniel's truck because he wanted to be able to watch. And just so you know: I got to do most of the mowing -- I actually love to mow lawns and want to do it as much as I can before I get too prego. It was a blast!
