All of the girls got ready at our place. It was a little crazy as usual, but a lot of fun.

Working our hinnies off in the back yard

Back deck, where we are planning on putting in another set of stairs to the yard, eventually a patio and gazebo if Hansen gets his way.
My little flower bed that is the easiest to weed.
Fence line and new mulch for all the beds after about 12 hours of weeding, extending out and trying to straighten out. MAN is this aBIG yard with lots of things to do. How the heck did Mom do all of this by herself. My weekends are consumed by it. One day a pool, gazebo, pergola and stone patio's. We're here another 5 to 10 years for sure! Thank Goodness the girls, Mike and Hansen helped out so much this past weekend!

How often do I get a picture with such a good looking young man. :) He was holding the camera. Ha Ha

Fathers Day Weekend at Pacific City 2009

Lexi's 5

Beach Trip

So we didn't make it camping. Lexi got sick, another ear infection caused by her allergies and asthma. We decided to make a day trip to Pacific City on Sunday. The weather was ok, wind didn't stop, but we had a good time. Sammi and Niki both invited friends to go. Sammi's friend Nikki came along. Niki's friend Jacob couldn't after all. We met my girlfriend Pam-who we were to camp with there. Her husband Rich and sons Nick and Aaron, hung out with us at the beach. Yep there was a Nick, Nikki, and Niki. Little crazy! Lexi was amazing. Had to get into the frigid ocean water, then built sand castles with our little army men on top. It was a hoot. Father's Day weekend we'll go back and try the camping bit.
