Mulch



One of the things we did while mom and dad were here was shop. Dad bought us some mulch to use along the shady side of the house. After they left Logan and I spread it. It looks so good we just had to share. We even made it look pretty straight! :)

Mom and Dad's visit



Over the weekend mom and dad came to visit us for a late b-day celebration and just because they wanted to. :) We had a great time just hanging out at the house. We worked in the yard, planted rubarb, cooked out and got to try out the new firepit Logan and I bought. It's a cool new toy and the smores were SO good. Also enjoyed the rubarb pie mom made for my birthday. So here are a few pictures!

Happy Birthday to Me!










Last week I celebrated my 32nd birthday. Yup-I'm getting old! :) My husband spoiled me rotten with flowers, dinner, going to a Phil Vassar concert and cake. And I got a fun tee-shirt from his mom and dad. We had a great time and I even got to have my picture taken with Phil. Very cool! So thanks to Logan it was a great birthday. And this weekend I get to celebrate again with my mom and dad. Here are some pictures from the "big day!"

Memorial Day Visitors

Over Memorial Day weekend Logan's mom and dad came to visit. We had a great time hanging out and sightseeing. We went to the Spy Museum, Ford's Theater, Archives, Old Town Alexandria and of course oyster shooters in Annapolis for Logan and his dad. And sometime in there we found time to chill on the patio and play Pepper. Here's a little taste of the weekend.

Update on outside


So as I posted awhile ago I posted pictures of the work we had been doing outside-planting grass, some flowers, raking, etc. Well, I'm happy to report that the grass looks awesome, the flowers have grown (until this last week of rain did them in), and I had some fun with spray paint to add some fun touches to "second patio" that we found "under" the bamboo. So here's I guess you could say the after pictures!

Spring Break Part 2

Our second part of spring break was spent in Iowa for Luke and Emily's wedding. It was a long weekend of hardly any sleep but a great time of hanging out with Logan's family. Logan was the best man and I was the self appointed assistant to the best man. Anotherwards I helped him do what he needed and attempted to keep him from freaking out about his speach. I'm happy to report the speach was AWESOME! So we had tons of fun and the wedding was beautiful. Here are a few pics. Yes they're mainly of Logan but what can I say-I'm married to the guy!

Spring break Part 1


This year for spring break (I told you I was behind) Logan and I did one of our whirlwind "how much can you cram in" trips to see family. We started in Nebraska with the little girls. They have gotten so big and are so cute! We had a great time being Uncle Logan and Aunt April. Here are a few pics from the park and hanging out at their house playing airplane and with their new toy Swampy the Alligator. Of course they already look very different but hey this is all I have!
