Our life lately

I will start with Memorial Day! Every year Dan and I take flowers to my Mom in May for 3 reasons: Mother's Day, Memorial Day, and Her Birthday. This year her birthday fell on Memorial Day! She would be 52 years old! 

This year is the first year to visit my Grandpa- and now he is with my Grandma. I feel it is important to honor our loved ones and those that keep our Country free!! I want Cameron to learn how important it is to always think of these people, and to honor their memory!

We had a BBQ with our good friends Steve and Nicole and their daughter Braelynn. Cam got his first experience eating corn off the cob, and had fun "playing" with Brae!










Cameron is becoming quite the helper as I have mentioned before. He loves to "help" however he can! He even helped at Grandpa and Grandma's this past weekend!

As you can see, he is never dressed…. No he is but it has been in the 80's and 90's and by the time dinner is over, he is a mess and is just hanging around in his diaper until his bath. It's also just super convenient to throw on a swim diaper to play outside in the sprinklers. 

Grandpa did a beautiful job at refinishing a rocking chair for Cameron that used to be Dan's, and Jackie's before that! It is beautiful. Cameron really likes it, but he insists on rocking in it backwards- well, he got stuck and Grandma had to help him!!

On to our yard projects! They have been keeping us super busy. It has taken all 6 years of hard work a little each year, but my front yard is finally beautiful! I love all my flowers!! 

Our backyard is another story- but it is a work in progress. My garden is all planted- our planter boxes are all done and planted, now we just need to get the stump grinded and removed, and the ground cleared for new sod!!
Dan told me I just had to do before pics. So here they are. My gross backyard. But the planter boxes look alright!
