Nothing says happiness like a .....

RIDING LAWN MOWER! A guy from church was getting rid of his riding lawn mower and asked Aaron if he wanted it. He told him it wasn't working, but if Aaron wanted to fix it he could have it. Of course Aaron wanted it! He has been wanting one for forever, even when we didn't have grass to mow. I swear Aaron can fix anything, he had that thing running in a couple of hours. It wasn't put all the way back together in these pictures, but it is now. After the grass was all mowed, he started pulling the kids around on sleds behind the mower just for an excuse to use his mower. Boys and their toys. Look at the happiness radiating from him.

Whistling away while he's cutting the grass. Oh yeah, I think his tractor's sexy!

This next one is just for fun. Aaron has been building us a shed with a really steep pitch to the roof. So to roof the shed, he decided to build himself a harness. He wanted to try it out before getting up on the roof, so he grabbed the dog's leash and hooked himself up to the porch. While he was up there the log he was standing on rolled out from underneath him and off the porch. This is what I saw when I opened the door to a soft knocking sound. I couldn't help myself, I let him hang there while I went to find the camera. Ha! Life is never dull with Aaron around.
