Pooper Scoopers

Well, it may be a little hard to see in the picture (just click to enlarge), but N aerated the lawns. The ground was so compacted that the water wasn't really soaking down very far. Looking at the plugs, they were only wet maybe an inch down (if even that)... and we'd just watered. So anyways, the kids came down and wanted to know what Daddy was doing. I said it looked like he was putting dog poop all over the yard with the big loud poopin' machine. You can bet that got some funny reactions! I took M out to look at it. Then I told her if she could run through the yard around the tree and back without stepping on any poop that'd I'd give her a dollar. After a No way! Really?!? she actually did it! She giggled the whole time. But with all the poop her heels were kicking up, she did not get that dollar! After closer examination, she and L finally figured out that it was not actually poop, but they had a lot of fun acting like it was. They got some of the poop collection bags from the park by the yard and filled them up. It was pretty funny!
