Lawn Kids

Since Maddux's birthday just passed and Eli's is coming up in a few weeks, Grandma Cathie gave them their gifts while she was in town. The main present was a bubble lawn mower - one for each of them. (Eli's 'old' one was taken apart by Daddy, never to be the same again.) The kids had a blast pushing the presents around the grass, leaving behind bubble trails. We had to mow the lawn that night, as luck would have it, so Eli really wore his new toy out, following behind me and marking our path. He is accustomed to 'emptying' his mower every time I need to empty my bag. This is a problem with the bubble lawn mower as that act will drain all of the bubbles. I told Eli to switch his settings to 'mulch' so he didn't have to empty his bag. He moved his lever up and down a few times and went on his way. Love it.
