Watch me mow!


Thanks be to my friend Lyndsay for inspiring me to mow the lawn this morning. When she told me she mows the lawn all by herself and even starts the mower without any help, I was determined.
Sean went golfing this morning and Weston agreed to help me out in the yard. I thought the mower was broken, maybe, when the pull cord wouldnt go further than like 3 inches. So, Weston held the lever down for me, while i pulled with all my might with both arms and when i heard the motor rumble to life i was hooting & hollaring and West was giving me high 5's! Who would have thought that mowing the lawn could make a girl feel so empowered. Of course I think I stalled it out a handful of times...and couldnt have been more relieved when Sean arrived home, just in time to "finish" for me. :) West was my big helper! Without him, I never could have gotten that mower started.
Here are a couple of pics of West helping with his own mower and of Sean and West finishing the last half of the lawn.
I am woman, watch me mow!
