Kenny emailed this picture to me when he was supposed to be working one night last week. He may have had too much time on his hands, heh heh. The photographer LOVED us, can you just imagine?


Of course I pick the last few days I have off to start a big project in the backyard....resodding where we had a HUGE stump ground out. I laid the sod after digging forever day, my hands are so chapped and sore and now I learn that we have to remove the sod, put topsoil (I was originally told we didn't have to as long as we dug the wood chips out, which was done) down, THEN put the sod on. Ugh. Sod is heavy and I transported it IN MY OWN CAR, in the trunk, which is currently open and drying out so I can vacuum the dry dirt out in the morning. What a day. Tomorrow morning we're getting topsoil, dropping it in, re-laying the sod and watering the crap out of it for two straight weeks. End of project. Hopefully. I know I'll be happy when it's all done tomorrow, I don't mind the watering every day. That's the fun part!

I also find watering fun! I have to go out and water my plants and dry spots in the yard (we live in TEXAS - HOT) about every day and I find it very therapeutic! I also don't mind yard work - good exercise!

Hope you have a good week - see you soon - Kellan

Cute cover - btw - HA!
