Introducing Holly as Pollyanna!

Disneyland 2008

Vegas Granny

I've been in Vegas for the last couple of weeks tending my adorable little grandson Evan. We really got to know each other well, he likes walks, being held, he loves it when his Daddy and Mommy come home and talk to him and my oh my is he growing! Now I'm really going to miss him... Anyway as soon as I get my camera back I'll post some pics of him. We also went to Disneyland in the middle of the two weeks so I need to post those pics too! We had a terrific time!

Happy Birthday AMY (a few days late ;( )

Yet another child leaves home

It used to be that we added a new member to our family every 2 or 3 years, now they seem to leave every 2 or 3 years. So here we are sending another daughter out into the cold cruel world. Jane moved out on August 22, she's now living in Orem with her friend Jenna and attending UVU. Yes, little Janey has grown up and is on her own, making her way into adulthood. Wow, our house is getting empty, and even though seniors aren't around much they can still leave a big empty place in your home when they leave.

Pond beginnings...

Here's the overall water feature, I've outlined it in yellow so you can see it better. Up here at the top the water will come out of a large pot or something, I haven't decided. Then it will run down the stream .and end up in the pond, where goldfish will be entertaining the kids (and cats).

I didn't hear from that Cassie, but this guy was begging for his photo to be taken.

He was out hanging around in my maple tree. I think he is about 3 inches long. Does anybody know what kind of a dragonfly he is?

Holly finally got her braces off!!!!

I think she's been influenced by the book she's reading, Breaking Dawn from the Twilight series.

New Patio

Okay, picture a water feature in the middle there and a fire pit in the hole on the right, surrounded by Douglas firs and aspens. Oh and some day a pergola on the right close to the back porch.

Happy Birthday Jon!

Patio half done!

We'll be getting the rest of the concrete tomorrow, so I'll post again.

The beginnings of the new GIGANTIC patio...

We are building a new patio so that we can actually use our back yard in the summer time. In the center there I plan to add a water feature and of course more flowers and trees...


Watch for further updates!

What's so fun about gardening?

Where do I start? Peonies, daylillies, morning glory, apples, vegetables, lupines, pansies, cats?

How we spent our 4th of July
