I dumped it!

We took the jet skiis out today and I am proud to report . . . I dumped it. I really wasn't going that fast. I said to Scott "Hey, look what I can do!" then I did a power turn, but couldn't keep it under control. Phill says I am turning into one of the guys. It was very choppy today, but otherwise we had a lot of fun until they ran out of gas. I am very proud of dumping it, the guys do it every time they go out!

Walmart & Playhouses

So, we went to Walmart yesterday to look at playhouses for the kids. I had looked at a couple at Super Walmart the day before and wanted to show Scott what they had. I couldn't find any, so I asked a worker. Keep in mind this is June, he said "We don't have those this time of year." I wasn't asking for a snow blower!! So, I am not sure what time of year one buys playhouses, but apparently it is not in the summer.

Little Project


We ordered 15 tons of river rock and split it with our neighbor to even out our parking area. Ended up we ordered a little more than we needed so, this is a little progect that we made up to use up rock, but it ended up really nice. Nothing can grow under the cotton wood and we have gravel coming under the fence from the neighbor's yard behind us. This picture was taken about 3 wheelbarrows before we were finished, but we love it. We put the rock back there really thick so when we are ready to take out the sand box there is enough rock there to fill in the hole.

New Additions


These are two of our new additions. This is the second year we have had baby birds in our lilacs. I like having the birds buzzing around. Tomorrow we will hopefully be getting the jet skiis out for the first time this summer. I can hardly wait!

Katie turned 3


I am trying to post a picture of Katie from her birthday, but I think blogger is changing it's picture uploading format as we speak. I will add the pictures as soon as I can. Her birthday went off great though. 3 of her friends were able to come. They enjoyed playing in the sand box and jumping on the trampoline with Ben and Scott. She was very excited about her birthday and she finally tells people she is 3 when they ask.
