Front Yard ReDo

I was sick of the mis-shaped, different sized boxwood hedges in the front of the house. So, we removed them and started over with gardenias, teaolive bushes, and hostas. We also did rubber mulch so we won't have to replace it for another 10 years (or so). I say "we" but honestly it was ALL Tyler, sweating, tilling, digging, planting. He is my superman.

Oh messy day

 It only takes 5 minutes to get this messy but 20 minutes to clean it up.

Sunday afternoon

Hot days call for cool treats!

Weekend in FL

I had to work a lot of shifts lately so once I had a whole weekend off, we ran away to the beach!
We all had a blast. Emmalee and I played on the blanket (she does NOT like the sand) and Annagrace and Tyler built a lot of sand castles. The water was too chilly to get in and even the pool was a little cold so we didn't do much swimming but we did play a lot.

Mother's Day 2011

 I am so extremely thankful for my Mother. She is not only my Mom, she is my best friend and my daily hero.

I know this is blurry. But, I love her expression, her excitement!

last day of soccer

Annagrace enjoyed her last day of her spring soccer season. The U4 (under 4 years old) group is just clinics, not a structured practice and game season. But, I was WAY more impressed with this season than the Fall. They actually tried to teach them how to dribble, kick, score a goal, etc. In the Fall, they played Duck-Duck-Goose, steal the ball from the giant, and freeze tag.  They were entertained but certainly not learning soccer skills. The last few practices, this season, were just mock games. They would split each little team in half and they played on tiny soccer fields. It was really cute and they just RAN, RAN, RAN!


Since this was there last night, we had a lot of fans come for the game!

After the game they all received a metal! Annagrace loved it and kept modeling it for pictures. Seriously, I have over 20 pictures of her with her medal.


 I am in love with this picture!
