New Backyard 'Digs'

No, we have not hired a landscaper for our backyard....


To start at the beginning (because you know, it's the very best place to start), about three weeks ago we came home from work to find our fence line adorned with tiny red and orange flags on metal sticks.  If you have met Reese you are probably already laughing.  Imagine putting red waving flags in front of a nine month old puppy...yeah right!  We had no notice from anyone that they would be putting flags in our yard so we weren't overly concerned by the fact that Reese (and I suspect a friend or two) promptly obliterate all of the flags.

Fastforward two weeks and while the roomies are in the Grand Canyon I hear a knock at the door.  It is a very nice man from Atmos Energy.  He has just discovered that all of his pretty flags have disappeard.  Oops.  We proceed to formulate a plan where he will give me a day's notice and I will take Reese outside on a leash so the flags stay in place and they don't blow up our neighborhood when they dig.  Yea...

We got the phone call that the digging was about to start on Monday so I wasn't surprised to find some pretty flags when I got home from work today.  Let the leash potty-ing commence.

There is currently a large hole in our backyard along with all the pretty flags.  I'm not sure how long it's going to be there.  This should be fun!
