What happened to June?!


Somehow or another I missed making any posts in June. Not that there wasn't anything to post, just that I didn't get around to it. This post is a makeup of sorts.



First we did a little landscaping to the front of the house. We took the storm door off the front, moved the rose bush's and a shrub, and planted two Hibiscus trees. I just love them and after they grow some more they will be even better. They can grow up to 6 feet in height.
Got the sand box done for the kids. We still have a little more to do to it, but the kids are having fun and its better then the dirt box it used to be.

The neighbors Cottonwood tree threw up all over our backyard and kept us trapped inside from allergies for over 2 weeks. It was horrendous to clean up.


Had a fun afternoon with the kids at the park. They love to ride their bikes and Hannah tried to roller skate. She was scared at first but after a little coaxing really liked it.





Yo Ho Ho



The kids and I had a swashbuckling time recycling broken crayons into new ones. ( word of caution; if using your microwave to melt the crayon pieces make sure none of them have any metalic colors in them. Arrghh...)
