backyard disaster pt.2

backyard_disaster1.jpg

stuff happens...yes i know. but this wasn't anything we expected! i was cleaning out the dirt on the trenches so it'll be more level when we put the pvc pipes. well, when i was i digging, i felt something weird then found our backyard drainage!?!?! see, where the trencher went through the pipe? i thought this was already a long project but now it just got longer to finish...greeeeeaaattttt!

disaster2.jpg

this was when we discovered the disaster... :P

disaster3.jpg

we started shoveling and digging.

disaster4.jpg

after about 1 hour of doing that, we were done and cut the pipe so we can replace it with the new one.

here was our little helper (to say the least...), thought that count...right? ;)

うわ~、良い表情~~~!
ふふ、ほんと、スコップ持って、一生懸命参加しているんですね ^^

それにしても、海くんの腰程の深さの溝・・・!
大変ですねー。
余りご無理なさらず・・・。

I'm glad my little grandbaby is a helper! :-) He has a good heart, like his parents! :-)

Oh, no. I thought weekends project but, we usually end up 1month project. 'cause always something happen, too. Kai-kun is good helper.

i can't believe that you guys even know how to cut and replace pipes!

(hi kai!)

まるさん、
がんばって掘りました〜。おかげで私もダニエルも筋肉痛です...ちょっと情けない... 海もお手伝いのつもりでしてくれているのは気持ちだけうれしいのですが...はっきりいってスピードダウンです。笑
来週もがんばってとりあえず全部の穴は埋めるつもりです。全部終わるかどうか楽しみにしててください。^^

yukosyさん、
海がもう少し大きければ本当にお手伝いできたのにな〜なんて思ってます。一応気持ちだけはうれしいのですが。^^
まさかこんなに穴を掘る事になるとはおもったほどの計算外です。私もダニエルもおかげで筋肉痛です...かなり普段、運動不足かも...

momica,
yes, he definitely has the good heart to help us, appreciate the thought for sure! but i really want him to just sit and watch us so that we can finish faster ;)

kyokoさん、
i know, projects always take longer than we expect, right? we thought we were gonna be done with all of this sprinkler and digging this week but we guessed it wrong! hope we can finish it all this coming up weekend!
