Family and Flowers

Saturday we had our first summer get-together at our house. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate so we didn't get to enjoy the yard or playground. Oh well, there is a long (hopefully) summer ahead of us.

We celebrated the two May birthdays (Matt's and mine). We had great food and enjoyed a few rounds of Boggle.We spent Sunday on various tasks around the house. Mark cleaned the gutters, mowed the lawn, and tiled. Yes, tiling in the bathroom has commenced. But I'll save the details of that for a separate post dedicated to the bathroom project. I spent most of the day potting flowers. We now have a big pot on the front porch, a medium pot on the tree stump in the back, three hanging baskets, five small pots on the back deck, and the "window box" on the back deck. No wonder it took me so long! :)
Even Sheba enjoyed some quality time outside. What a great Sunday afternoon!

What a pretty hanging basket! Can't wait to see the place in person, you're definitely ahead of me on the yard beautification process!

The photos of y'all are welcomed. I love seeing how Avery and Rachelle are growing (Sheba, too). You adults are no less photogenic than the girls:) Thanks for the news and the neat effect of the framing of the photos.
