I know there are people who have blogs where they share a picture each day. I'm sure I could do that, because Lord knows I take enough pictures. But I just don't always remember to share them here.

Today though? Today you get pictures!  

We had 8 yards of mulch delivered this morning. WOO HOO! It was thrilling......for the girls at least.  And actually, I ended up only doing about 1/3, maybe only 1/4 of the heavy work, so it was pretty thrilling for me too!  Everything looks clean and fresh now. Although, in hindsight, we could have used 10 yards, not 8 - who knew?

 Funny Katherine-ism: I came home this afternoon and found her covered in mud. She was digging in a sand bucket full of mud. For no other reason that to play in mud. Ok then!  She had also been outside all day, most of that was without shoes on. So when everyone went inside, I told her to go up and wash her feet in in the tub. I said, "You have 5 minutes. Water on. Water off. Soap on. Rub feet. Water on. Water off. DONE. Do NOT make a mess."  About 4 minutes later, she was calling for help, " There's so many bubbles!"
What? Why?
I went up to help and found that she had used the shampoo/conditioner to wash her feet, and yes, indeed, the tub was filled with bubbles.  Good grief!

Luckily, our other accomplishment for the day was a yummy dinner. Roasted Red Pepper Pesto sauce with  pasta and yummy bread, and green beans.  Everything is better when you can eat good food on the patio, enjoying the view of a clean, fresh yard, right?

(Can you see the mulch in the background there?)

It was while sitting and chatting after dinner that Katherine came up with another one. She said "Look at the sun, it's peeking through the trees!"
Yes, it was.
"BUUUUUUT, If you put your eyebrows DOWN, it makes the sun look even shinier!"
What? Eyebrows down? What do you mean?

Try squinting - do your eyebrows go down when you squint? Yup. That's what she meant.
