The Back Yard

One of the best things about Papa's house is the back yard. It is huge! So that means lots of room for digging and doing other fun, dirty stuff. Micah loves to spend as much time as possible outside while we are in Idaho. Here are a few of his recent adventures...


"Daddy, let's did a big hole and see how big we can get it"

"Now I need to mark it with a sign so everyone knows what I've been doing"

Helping Papa get the sign ready to post

"Here's the place to put it. The sign says 'Micah digs here.'"

Papa has a great garden with lots of vegetables that are so yummy. But at this time of year the best thing is the pumpkins. They are huge! It took two of them to get it into the trailer.

This was the first time Micah carved a pumpkin. He was not as interested in it as we thought he would be. In fact, we could not even get him to stick his hand inside to pull out the seeds. He thought it was too dirty and yucky.
He did enjoy the finished product though.
Papa had some things to burn so the boys had a little bonfire one day...

And they turned it into a weenie roast. Micah sure liked his hot dog!
