Kickin' It Farm Style!

It's that time of year at the Ruffs....time to do a major project either in our house or yard.  This year: a Gigantic Garden! (we gotta feed these kisds!)  We rented a tractor and removed a whole bunch of trees and leveled our back yard.  Here are pictures from our first weekend of work.
Those darn tree stumps are hard to get out.....

....we resorted to using hand shovels!...then we rented a stump grinder...that didn't work....hired a guys with a massive stump grinder...that worked! 

The Ruff Girls: doing some Spring clean-up.  They fastened a large tarp to the back of the mower and drug it around; collecting pin needles.

Dave taught Adam to drive the Tractor.  Adam spent probably 12 hours on this machine!  He has a natural gift, he's all grins!


3 dump trucks full of compost.



That's ME!  Dave taught me how to run the tractor too!  I spent about 45 minutes running it. 

Look at the giant stump I dug up and pulled out!

Gotta end the blog with a little SugarBeeps!!!
