Clark and his new look.

Can you see the kitty teeth marks? (Note: A cat was not meant to eat a rose. Their intestines do not lie.)

These are Mom's birthday flowers that she left for us to enjoy. That is Nutmeg closing in for the kill.

Ladlaw gardens was a lot of fun. This picture might make my desktop rotation.

I don't know why, but they seem to really like the big eraser thing. There was a line to take pictures in front of it.

Hi Beccah! How's London?

I forgot to make the rolls, but we had plenty of food.

The old fence (left) versus the new fence (right). I think we should go for it and paint the old fence. Putting up new chain link was a huge pain.

Now for the rest of the fence... old fence (left) versus primed and painted (right). Is it worth it?

Look at that amazing fence. We did that all by our selves. We set the posts 30" down (to code) and set the fence 12" down.

Here's the official after picture.

It's a wonder we didn't have to cut down the creap myrtle.

The builder built and loaded the shed with the wrong axis facing forward, so we couldn't roll it into place. We had to have 2 guys spend 2 hours slowly nudge it into place.

Whoops, the shed didn't quite make it.
