the 1st day of spring...

yesterday was the first day of spring... and it was a very productive day at that. dad, austin & i worked in the backyard for hours [tino & i even got lovely farmer tans... and i mighta burned a little too and dad definitely got a bit red... hahaha]. well. we got the footers ready for the retaining wall... it doesnt look like we got much done, but it really was a big and important step! and hopefully that will have been the hardest part. the rest should fall into place quite nicely! austin took pictures of us, but they were much too much too close so you dont get to see those. lol... but here's the yard! :)
