I'm amazed at the men they have become and I'm sure big brother is smiling down and proud of all three younger brothers. Where did the time go? Made me smile and brought tears to my eyes.
A yellow butterfly was flying around the yard today and I like to think that it's a sign that Tim was near. He was on all our minds today. We miss him everyday but know that he would be happy that we were together and would want us to enjoy our day.
I received some cards that made me cry, some beautiful flowers, the girls cooked dinner, and my guys put in 6 hours of hard work building me a new walkway.
This is what we started with and harder than heck to walk on in heels.
Jeff, Curt, Paul & I cleared out all the old rocks and dirt (Trav had to work)
Once Trav got there he surprised us all and laid most of the stones. Travis is my golfer. He is a assistant golf pro at a course and does not do manual labor.
He put the stones down like he was working a puzzle. He told us he was brilliant.
He has never been so tired in his life. I bet he sleeps like a baby.
Paul and Curt made not one but two trips to home depot, unloaded rocks and 40 bags of sand.
My poor hubby won't be able to move from being on his knees leveling the rocks. He and I took turns and let's just say we like to think we are young but our bodies were screaming at us to stop.
I tried to sit and watch. It is Mother's day after all but I could not help myself. I love playing in the dirt and couldn't wait to jump in and help.
