This one's for you Amanda!

My husband hates to mow - it's really something that he doesn't look forward to, while most other things he'll do with a smile on his face. So, to make the task end more quickly, my husband "run mows," something that the neighbors think is quite hilarious. I guess since it's what he's always done I thought it was normal?

My neighbor Amanda has never been able to witness the "run mow" in action. The difficulty is the efficiency of the "run mow." It starts and is over in a blink - thus my husband's love of the technique. So, I captured the "run mow" in time just for you Amanda - and I'm pretty sure others will get a big kick out of it as well!

THAT IS SOOOOOOOOO AWESOME!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I laughed out loud the entire time I watched that video! Priceless. I was so excited when I saw the title of this post and that there was actually a video attached - YOU MADE MY NIGHT! I had pictures in my head of what it might look like and the video did not disappoint! I think this deserves to be put on YouTube! I admire this brilliant technique Heath. Maybe you could go on the talk show circuit as "the run-mower guy" and enlighten the rest of the lawn mowing population. Thank you SO much Brit for thinking of me and capturing this on a video that I can watch over and over for a pick-me-up anytime I'm having a down day. I still dream of being able to witness this in person someday. I will add it to my list of life goals. Ahhh... nothing feels better than a good laugh! Thank you for knowing me well enough to create this post for me. :) Love you guys!

This makes me laugh so hard! Ben absolutely HATES mowing too. He actually does something similar when mowing, but Heath has him beat, HANDS DOWN. I'm going to show this to Ben....he will LOVE IT!

That is hilarious. I laughed so hard after I pushed play. The smile on his face is just too much. Thanks for sharing!
