Chloe playing with Pa-pa!

I think, no offense to any of the other 3 out there, that this is Chloe’s favorite grandparent. . . .she giggles whenever she see his picture.  Maybe this is why. . .  :)

Our Latest Home Improvement Project

So this is what we’ve been working on since Memorial Day, and it’s almost there – a yard full of luscious green grass.  Well, it’s grass, and it’s semi-luscious, thanks to the drought; it’s not quite full, but a LOT better than tracking red mud in everytime we played outside with Chloe.  Now, we have to figure out how to keep the wasps out of the grass, or we might have the same problem my friend, Keren, did! :)  

Before the grass!

We let it grow for 6 weeks before we cut it the first time.

Hopefully we’re at least helping out the curb appeal some on our little house – but for now, um. . . we gotta go cut the grass. . . :)
