Backyardigans


Our backyard is finally beginning to take shape. We actually bought this house because of its amazing backyard, but until now we never really used it. Last summer Hank built me my garden boxes, so we had our veggie garden, but that's about it.

Jessica's favorite part is her new car. She actually has something to keep her entertained while mom and dad work.


This is my extremely attractive gardening pose. This was taken a couple weeks ago, and now the flowers are really starting to grow.


My favorite part: our new patio set! I've been looking for one forever and I finally found the perfect one! It's such a nice place to sit and relax on a hot summer afternoon.

This year for our garden we have salsa garden (tomatoes, peppers, cilantro, etc.) and a little pumpkin patch for Halloween. I'll try to post more pics later in the summer so you can see how everything is turning out.

I love your furniture! You have great taste! Good luck with the gardening! We wish Jessica was still here in our backyard playing in the car (which of course means you would have to be here too! ) Miss you guys!

I am finally blogging about our big trip to Hawaii last month. It was our 3rd anniversary and our dear friends, the Barnums, said we could come visit them anytime we wanted....so we did! Here are a lot of pictures, in no particular order: On the actual day of our anniversary, April 19th, Hank and I left the baby with a sitter and hit the town by ourselves. Since I wasn't a fan of the whole snorkling thing, we took a submarine ride to get a good view of the sea life. Yes, that is a real sea turtle in the real ocean, 100 ft underwater. I snapped this picture out my window. The view of Waikiki from our sub before we went under. The flag at the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. It has been raised to half mast everyday since the memorial was erected. Hank helping raise the flag first thing in the morning. "Give me gum gum, dumb dumb." Us and the Barnums at the Temple.

So Sleepy . . .

So, we may be terrible parents, but we thought this was so funny. Jessica wouldn't take an afternoon nap today and by dinnertime she was exhausted. She was so tired that she couldn't even chew her food. The best part was that Hank could not stop laughing at her and it was keeping her awake. This video was much longer, but I cut it down...because watching a baby fall asleep may not be as interesting to you as it was to us.
