$$$4Dirt

Until I moved here I would never have thought about actually paying money for . . . well, for dirt. I grew up in a small town and dirt was everywhere, so who would want to pay for it? Well we did. Dennis has been working more on our landscaping and that required bringing in a big load of "top soil", which I guess is the city word for dirt that you pay for. . . I still laugh in side. So for about a week we had a big pile of dirt...oh excuse me, topsoil, in our driveway and in the children's shoes and ears and hair. Dennis and the boys loaded it into wheelbarrows and took it around our yard. He's also been bringing in stones to line the flowerbeds, for free, glad to see it stops somewhere. It's coming together so well and looks great. We're going to be bringing in some mulch next. I'm so excited. It's all coming together so well.
