We have been busy around here doing so many different things. The weather is FINALLY starting to get nice...sometimes. We've been working in the yard a lot and got a vegetable garden in. We'll see if it survives the little tornado who is my son. We redid the beds up front (pictured) and we also maintain the extensive yard of a previous landlord of ours. Between that, our kids, preschool, church callings, etc, we seem to maintain a steady level of activity. It's marvelous. Here are a few pics of stuff.
My baby girl will be six months old this month. Sigh...I have felt so blessed to have such a sweet spirit in our home. She blesses all of our lives with her contagious smile and sweet attitude. There isn't one person in our home who doesn't ADORE her.
We ripped out the boxwoods that used to be in front of the house and extended and reshaped the beds then planted perennials in there. I am so excited for the plants to fill in the spaces. It didn't cost hardly anything either. 90% of the plants are starts from various places that I got for free! Thanks Carla, for your awesome contacts and getting us so many great plants. Another of my projects is to paint the trim on the house white.
Clare is a wonderful artist and could do this all day. Shelby gave me the marvelous idea of letting the kids paint on carboard boxes that we just folded out. I just let them use one of my foam brushes that you can get anywhere (keep an eye out for Michael's 20 for a $1 sale) for cheap and some craft paint. She has a BALL!
Another one of Fallon just because she-is-so-friggin-cute!
