Weeds, family, July 4th and cars

    Our new grass was looking good, minus all the chinese elm that had taken residence so over the weekend we began the overwhelming process of pulling it out by hand and after our ice cream gathering and all the helping hands, we got it all done and it looks so much better! 

 

 

    Kayli, Tanner and the girls took some great family photos.

Cute Wendel family.

And now they're 5!

    

    Greg and I went with a couple neighbors on a beautiful hike the morning of July 4th.

So green and gorgeous.

The view is always spectacular and worth the effort.

That's one way to keep track of the binkie.

    Isaac and his buddies out on a Spyder tour.

MR2 enthusiast for sure!

Epic photo shoot.

    So I failed to take even one photo of fireworks or our neighborhood "Sidewalk of Fire" on the 4th but it was a great evening and a few of the neighbors went all out on the fireworks show. 

    Greg and I celebrated, informally,  28 years of marriage yesterday. Next weekend we're hoping to have a more formal celebration but obviously nothing too crazy. $$$ is tight!
