Yay for a new yard!

Friday and Saturday, Mr. Kevin landscaping came and fixed our yard. I'm so happy!! He still has a fence to build for the dogs, but the parts won't be in for 2 weeks. Still, YAY!!! He put chip under the fort, helped level out the ground and laid new sod. It looks SO much better than before. The dogs are not allowed on the grass. No digging and no pottying! Jeff and I went out and bought some bark, flowers, ground cover and stones for the border near the deck. I need to go back and get more flowers and stepping stones, but it is looking very nice. Here are some photos.





Oh, the photos were taken by ME on my new little Nikon Coolpix camera. SO not an SLR and not as great as Jeff's camera, but I'm totally thrilled with it. I'm going to take it to CA with me next weekend. Okay, it's really OUR camera, but I'm going to call it mine for right now. I don't know what Jeff would want with it anyway when he has such a fabulous D2X just sitting there. :)

This weekend we went to Wenatchee for a wedding Jeff was photographing. Check out his site soon, I'm sure he'll have a new slide show up. There were a lot of fabulous photos, of course. The kids, Mom and I spent Saturday together making cards and we also went to Smallwoods Farm which has a petting farm area. We fed the silly animals tons of carrot sticks. Later, when I saw a cow on the way home, Paige yelled "I want feed him carrot!" After Smallwoods, we went to Leavenworth and checked out the shops and finished up at Cold Stone Ice Cream. yum yum.

When we got home, Jeff met with a bride who chose him to photograph her wedding next month at Shilshole Bay.

Tomorrow, we need to get more flowers and I think we'll round out the fish tank with some pretty fish since the frogs have survived the first few days with us. I'm so excited they are still okay. I feel like I've accomplished something by providing them with a decent habitat :)

Good night.
