The Shenk Family has spent the last few weekends (and some weeknights) trying to tame our backyard. We have some new garden beds that need planting, some new patio furniture to enjoy, and we’ll hopefully finish laying our new flagstone path this weekend. (Pictures to come soon…)

James has enjoyed getting in on the action, but, as you can see, is only helpful when it comes to pushing the wheelbarrow, which is the only item in the backyard with the one thing guaranteed to catch his attention— a wheel!
