I blame it on the beautiful weather....


Again here I am apologizing for taking so very, very long to post now journal updates!  I am sorry!!!  Although this is our third summer here, this seems like the first year of really enjoying our wonderful yard!  This year we have decided is going to be the Summer of Yard Improvements.  We want to love our house and yard, and take full advantage of the space we have.

It is the end of June and already I am so excited and impressed with what we have already accomplished!  Since the Spring, we have built a privacy fence which now gives us a cute little patio; we have cleared beds and layed mulch; we have expanded my herb garden once again and built up the wall surrounding it; and the biggest project has to be the amazing swingset that Scott, my dad, Don and Neil built. 


There is still much we want to do, and I am sure every year something new will come up.  But this is fun work and one that pays off right away.  You can actually SEE where your sweat, money and hard work went to. Awesome.



I need to get running to the grocery store for the company we are having tonight.  Entertaining in our new yard of course!  But please check back for lots of new updates and pictues (OBX 2009 vacation included!)
