Mia wanted to draw a picture of the family including our long awaited little boy. Somebody on top got a little erased, she wasnt happy about that. But I had to post it anyway.




The best way for me to spend time with the kids but still do nothing is entertain by WATER. The pool, sprinklers, squirt guns you name it. They have so much fun and and I get to just sit there and watch them. Love it. After I have this baby I will be running in the sprinkers with them I will be so excited.


The kids had a campout with Dad in the backyard. They loved it. We had some Cocoa Rice by candlelight before they turned in.





Believe it or not even though the day was very hot, Big Silver came in to come get another blanket. He actually said it was chilly. That never happens....he is getting soft on me.



Now...the long awaited feature from my husband. I know in some pictures it has already showed a little part of our deck, but I need to put the before and after. Not to mention the fact that Silver built it himself. He has never built anything before!! He looked at a 1-2-3 Deck book from Home Depot, created a few designs and went for it. May I also brag a little more and say that he built it in 6 days!!!! He amazes me everyday, there is nothing this man cannot do. In my eyes anyway.




Here has the frame built and screwed into the house. Our friend Jeff was so kind as to help with the framing.





The floor is coming along nicely.



And WAALLAAAA! He himself is so proud.




Side view of course. We had to put a gazebo up over the hammock. You need shade to sleep right?




Of course the front view. We hang out more in the back then we do inside.

I always loved the smells you are describing we should probably get online and do some research and find out what that means...your beautiful and so is your family. See you soon. Love Tami

I can't believe your deck! That is amazing. My husband isn't that useful at all. You are sooo lucky.

Your deck is incredible! I can see why you would want to hang outside all of the time! I can't believe you are so close to having your baby! I am anxiously awaiting your good news! Love ya

ok...i am the little old snoopy lady neighbor across the street, and I can attest to Silver building this masterpiece in 6 days. I was amazed, and that was before I went in the backyard to see it. It is a wonderful, private, oasis...a PERFECT entertaining backyard. Enjoy it!
