Labor-ous Day

During the week of the reunion we got most of Brigham's brothers to come help us with the retaining wall in our back yard. It was a ton of work, and 100 degrees. They were great and we sure appreciated the help.

First they had to move the railroad ties that were scattered across the yard and stack them. That was a task in itself.

Here is a before picture, just a rocky hill.

Here's a picture after the first few hours. I didn't get very good pictures. Jeff's kids came out to help for a little bit and the neices and nephews sat and watched them work, it was cute.

Here they are hard at work. Had already been working 8 hours in the heat at this point.

Zeke watched out the window, loved the tractor and watching his dad.

Here is the finished wall. Well as finished as we got, it still needs a little work, which is a lot of work.

It wouldn't fit in one picture and the trailier is in the way, but here is the other half, straight up and down, the other half has two levels.

Thanks so much everyone, we couldn't have done it without you!
