Around the house

These first few photos are for those of you who have never seen the house! We have 5 acres outside of Lafayette, IN and we love our yard! Alex spends most of his time outside running all over the back yard helping me do yard work or chasing the cats and dog. This is a picture of the back of the house from the shed.
The front of the house....

I'm sitting on the back steps taking these next few pictures.



The pine trees in the back are ours.
There's a sand volleyball court in the back left corner.



Yesterday, I found Alex in his bedroom playing with some stuffed animals. He had them each laying on their own cloth diaper and was feeding them with a plate and spoon he stole from the dishwasher when I was unloading it. Later, I found him reading books to them in the rocking chair. Alex taking care of the babies.....oh, I think he'll make a good big brother!

The trees on your property are beautiful. How long does it take to mow? LOVE the pictures of Alex taking care of his animals ... so sweet!!

It takes a long time to mow... we got a new mower last year and that cuts our mowing time down a lot. We can get it done in about 2.5 hours.
