Hallelujah!

The rain missed us!!  I guess God knew I wouldn't be able to handle it  :)  Check out this weather map...IN...SANE!!!  How it missed us there is just one answer....and he loves us all!

 

So the guys from the digging company got there around 10:00 (they had like a 2 hour drive, yuck!)  They got right to work.  I was sooo impressed with how quickly they could do everything.  I mean, I realize that they do this for their job...but still...they were fast!!

They started at the pond and just backed their way up the hill...digging all the way!

There's the loops that they actually put into the water!  Kade came home at lunch to check on things so he got to talk to them a little bit and see some of what was going on.

The entire thing was only about 6' wide by 8' deep.  CRAZY!

Man they're quick...I don't even think they'd been working for 30 minutes and they were already just about done digging!! 

Look at that!  It only took them about 4.5 hours total...they were packed up and gone by about 2:30!

It's going to take awhile before that dirt settles...
we'll probably have to scrape off the top and fill as it sinks in!!

As an added bonus...we had a small tree stump on the side of the house and Kade had said to the mini excavator driver...feel free to take that stump out if you want too...

and so he did!!  THANKS MINI EXCAVATOR DUDE!

Our peony's were blooming today too...gorgeous!  I think we're going to have to move them though...the "bed" if you can call it that...is about 50% weeds and 50% peony plants!

What more could we ask for...a job well done, perfect weather and beautiful flowers!  I'm happy!
