A Spring Weekend

The weather this weekend was perfect!  We had dinner in the backyard, played outside everyday and enjoyed the warmer temperatures.

Outdoor Movie Night

Last weekend I set up our backyard as a movie theater for the kiddos and we watched the Lego Movie!  I made a quick screen from a sheet, and hooked up the computer to the projector and we had a fun evening outside. The kiddos loved it and I did too.  We started the movie just as the sun was setting and the temperatures started to cool off.  By the end of the movie, after our popcorn and treats were gone we were all on the air mattress with blankets on finishing up the movie.  It was an evening well spent and I am sure we will do it again!

Our Next Adventure

Our next adventure has begun!  We are in our new home, I have started my new job, the kiddos are in school, and we have been to our new church.  Things are falling into place and we are loving all of the new things happening in our lives.  We had our first dinner in our backyard with family.  It was great!  Nice temperatures, food on the bbq and a cozy fireplace to top it all off!  There are quite a few trails and green space areas around our neighborhood as well.  We have been trying to explore them and see where they all lead to.

Just call us gardeners

That's right.  We are officially gardner's now.  We have a garden.  We finished our first project in our backyard.  We build a small retaining wall to block off the garden area along the fence line of our backyard.  We brought in a truck load of some new top soil and planted some tomatoes, squash, zucchini, cucumbers, peppers and pumpkins.  Now we just have to baby them for a few months, with water, fertilizer, wedding, etc.... and then we can enjoy all the fresh veggies!

T was a big help too.  He has been wearing this cowboy hat that he found in some of our storage.  he loves it.  I guess all that country music that the wifey listens to is paying off, ha.  The patio is our next project that we want to get done within a month or so.  Wish us luck!
