Update of just...stuff :o)

My beautiful new wreath for the door! I saw this and just HAD to buy it! We have a beautiful florist at Michael's and I'm becoming a very VERY quick fan of her work :o)


Here is abi's new play structure. John is very proud of this and it's amazing how fast it actual went up. It will be moved further back in the yard once we get the new fence built. There is a slide, 2 swings, a tire swing, a rock climb mountain (the colored rocks thing) to the top tower, another mountain (a little easier to climb) on the lower tower opposite the slide and a cargo net opposite the rock mountain. We are going to till a rectangle a bit larger then the structure and put those big cedar sliverless chips so it's a bit more friendly to play in :o)
The new fence (well, atleast this section :o)) We started with the street side of the yard since that is the side I'm most worried about. Nothing like being on a corner so that EVERYONE can see what you're doing in the backyard! Anyways. This same design will wrap all the way around the entire backyard (I'm especially excited to cover up the view of our back neighbors house...see above picture of the play structure!!) You know what they say, 'good fences make good neighbors!'
