New Home

Yard Work and the Story Behind This Picture...

Lately the turkeys around here can breathe a little bit easier, because Tom has a new nemesis he's been focused on (and no, it's not me):

PEBBLES!

Yes, that's right... tiny, itty, bitty, rocks.  Our back yard is full of them, and while they may look pretty, they don't play well with our lawn mower.  We've found that over time, especially after it rains, the migrate from where they're supposed to be, to all over our lawn.

Summer Parties

Recently we were invited to Nicole and Stephen's for a party and celebration.  Both sets of parents were in town as well as a lot of family friends that I've known since I was a little kid.  It was a great opportunity to catch up with everyone and talk weddings, and new houses, and other various life events (like Kelly's new baby who made an appearance at only 2 weeks old!).
