I tag Brian Kynaston (how can you say no to your mother-in-law)

Professional Landscaping....not really:)

Bri and I have been working on the front yard. It's fun to have a project that we get to do together. Here are some before and after shots. The tree in the bucket is a "red dog" we'll be planting that up in the front corner of the yard. The flag shot is for Dad. I remember so many times growing up and seeing our flag flying on holidays and other important days. I thought that my children should learn a little appreciation and respect for the flag. We put it up and down every morning and night. (unless we forget:)

If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times...

This family is so awesome. Thanks so much to everyone for coming to Kenzie's soccer game. She sure felt important and loved. Thanks you guys. By the way, who are these people in the picture?

Does this remind you of anyone?

Pretty funny Foxtrot cartoon today. It's not every day I share a cartoon that reminds me of myself, but this one certainly falls into that category. I'm not really that big of a nerd, but many of you seem to think I am...
