fire in the pit.

we're ALMOST finished with our backyard "project"
i like to think up projects, i've mentioned this before.

this has seriously taken some teamwork.
from day one.

teamwork:
while the two of them say, "it's go time"?
one momma says, "start diggin boys!"

teamwork:
one works, one looks on with approval
teamwork:
while one sleeps?
two enjoy the fire :)
teamwork:
while one momma sunbathes?
one little boy stops to check progress.
teamwork:
while one little boy eats sand?
one momma takes photos of him.
teamwork:
while one little boy digs just like "dada"?
one momma sunbathes, again.
and, more teamwork:
while one little boy jumps from rock to rock?
one momma winces with each hop, thinking he'll surely get hurt.
{nope, he's a tough dude}
well, there you have it.
progress is happenin so fast it's like roastin a marshmellow.
one moment your sittin there all nice a cozy roasting your mellow,
and the next moment its on flames, done. done. done.
yep. by tomorrow {mr leif says} this bad boy will be complete.

and tomorrow, i'll post a FINISHED photo :)
i might even have mr leif pose with a shovel.
because that's probs the cool thing to do.
and, well, we're cool.

he says he's gonna put an add on craigslist "you can have this done to your backyard for $4,000"
any takers?  come on!  help support our travel to europe fund!
or is it our buy a new truck for mr leif fund?!
or maybe it's just our let's just meet our needs fund.
yep, i think it's the last one.
#contentmentisabeautifulthing.
{but we can dream, right?}

UPDATE!

and, i just fell in love with mr leif all over again :)
