First Day of First Grade

School is open and Aaron is ready for First Grade. The only thing better than a new favorite shirt and new school supplies is getting to see all your buddies after summer break. He's off to a great start - we are sure that it will be a great year.

August Means Birthdays

Dallas turns 23 and Megan is finally 22. Aaron is just happy to have them both home for dinner. He helped make Dee's birthday cake which was fully equiped with a DS made out of cake. Cool!!! Megan settled for her traditional Choc-Choc layer cake. Yummo! It was nice to have all of them together if only for one evening. Happy Birthday kids!

White Oak Pond - Stage II

Another weekend spent collecting rocks around the neighborhood. Dallas said that it was getting a little embarrassing having his wife comb the neighborhood pushing her wheelbarrow, begging for rocks. By Sunday, our neighbors were bringing them to us. We added a few plants around the edges to dress things up and some more fish to watch. It is certainly a work in progress. Check back in soon for more pictures or just come for a visit.

On White Oak Pond

So Momma wanted a pond - something new in the yard. These days we can all use a little tranquility, a little stress relief. With a little encouragement from a neighbor and a whole lot of her help. Momma now has her pond. It will be an ongoing project for months to get it looking just right. We are looking forward to adding fish and plants to make it a part of our home. What fun!. Come visit, bring your pole.
