Starting to feel like Summer

Finally it's starting to feel a little bit like summer in Tasmania.  I'm not holding my breath though, because I know that now I have said it, it's most likely going to cool down again.  Although we don't really have a backyard yet (we have lots of landscaping to do still) it hasn't stopped the boys getting out there and cooling off by playing in the water.

Kobe thought it would be okay to go in clothes and all.  Don't you love the muddy colour of the water after they get in and out a few times.

All the while Aaron is slogging away making them a HUGE sandpit.  

We aren't going to attempt any major landscaping until after the summer holidays, as the boys are going to want to play out there lots and they won't be keen on giving the lawn time to grow. 

I'm trying to be patient and remind myself that it will all come in time (the rendering, retaining wall and driveway also still needs to be done).  For now I just have to put up with muddy footprints through my kitchen. I'm sure early in the new year it will all be finished and we can sit back and enjoy it all.
