Mason fell asleep while I was working in the yard. He's so sweet!
Jackson is so excited because he remembered how to ride his bike without training wheels.

My friend Leanne gave me some beautiful flowers from her daughters wedding reception. They smelt so good and they were so gorgious.

As you can tell I don't have my mom around to keep up my laundry duties so the kids like to bury themselves in what we call the clothes corner.



The pool has been so beautiful. Most of the pictures in my blog are going out on my mother's behalf so she can see the yard in the summer time.


Mason loves to work in the yard he throws everything in the pool so I have to go in and get it.


I took out all of the pavers that my mom had around the property and brought in top soil and planted grass. It's not all filled in yet but it's a work in progress.





I got a new kitchen table after 10 years of marriage. Scott found it and just had to have it. It really is beautiful.



The flowers around the waterfall are starting to bloom and fill in. I'm loving the yard because it reminds me of the South where everything is green and there are plants growing everywhere.



I've had a lot of fun planting and landscaping the yard. For those of you who didn't know that one of my passions is plants and being outside. Well now you know.



This is one of my mother's favorite views. Mt. Timpanogos. Can you believe we still have snow on it in June, weird.

The flowers and perenials are starting to bloom and fill in. Ahh I love it!


For those of you who didn't see the yard before with my enemies the rose bushes that I was pruner of I had Scott hook his truck up to them and pull those suckers OUT! Yes. No more fighting with the rose bushes. Don't get me wrong, I love roses. But not bushes with tiger sized thorns and tree trunk sized stems.



Looking Good? Huh Mom?



Just thought I'd throw in a picture of our gutter trailer. It's one of 3 different trailers that we have. So hopefully all our neighbors aren't complaining too much with everything parked out front of our house. Plus you see the beautiful mountains in the background.



Chui and Mason guarding the front door.



The kids have been swimming in the pool since April. It was 60 degrees. They take after me there. As long as I'm in the water and having fun who cares about the temperature.
