Blogging Hiatus!

Ahh.. It has only been 5 months since my last post!

We FINALLY got Internet so I will try to update this baby a little more often.
Saturday Russ and I took a little trip to home depot and got a few things to make our yard look a little less ghetto! It is slowly getting there.. We also bought the paint to paint the window seals and hand railings. I cant wait until the good weather is here to stay and then we will paint the outside and get a new front door and build shutters.. All I want is a new front door.. A BRIGHT RED one:)

This is our haul, we went back 2 more times after this..

Kaia loves her yard. She looks a little over weight
P.S. don't mind all of the dandelions. Our grass is a work in progress think Fun with Dick and Jane lawn:)

The back corner (lilac bush) and hopefully this wont be trampled by the dogs during their daily attack of the neighbors dogs!

(Grizzly up to no good) This is a shot of how awesome our yard looked! Just call us the Clampetts.

mmm... Sh-nasty!

(And after)
A little love, some bushes and flowers!

Now if the dogs would stop using this as a race track!
