I had an adventure mowing the lawn this weekend. I haven't mown the lawn since we moved here (or really since I was younger and my parents had a riding lawn mower) because Jake always did it so....I did it Sunday. It was due because Ally was having a hard time finding her ball and the grass was seeding aswell. First I couldn't get it started so the neighbor kid came and started it for me. (Not a kid but a "teen", he was bigger than me.) Then I didn't stop because I was afraid that I couldn't get it started again. So I realized that it is a lot of work, and today I am sore. Also my dad and Jake gave me a few tips over the phone like using the choke to start it (the choke makes it easier to start) and it is easy to start again once it has been running for a while. This experience definitely made me appreciate all that Jake did around here, and I will be so excited to have him back in 14 months and 3 weeks (ish)!
I am also posting a photo of my fresh mowed lawn and our little garden.

I'm proud of your accomplishment!
I hope that Jake won't "expect" you to mow all the time after he returns home.
You better mow it again before "Company" arrives...you'll want your house AND yard looking it's best! :) JUST KIDDING...maybe I'll mow it for you!!?? Or you can flip a coin for Melissa to do it!
good job on the lawn! :) It looks great!
