Eventful...yet uneventful.

None of our plans that we had for the Saturday worked well. We kind of got stood up, per usual, by our friends. So we ended up doing some yard work. Trying to dig the ivy out of the ground and off the house. So far the front is looking nice. We were both hurting after the garage and front got cleaned up...so we are saving the side and back for another day when we are recovered. SO SAD! lol.

Then we went on an unsuccessful hunt for a compact sandbox. We now have sand and sand toys...but no box. So that is our plan for today. Reason behind this need for a sandbox is that I took the kids to the park. Eli LOVES the sandbox. But, he kept putting things in his mouth. I've found glass there and other not so nice things lying around because some 12 year olds think it is funny to throw gross things in a kid's park. Anyway, Eli picked up a stick and was putting it in his mouth...and about 1 hour later--had a weird rash on his face on the side he was rubbing the stick. I'm a little paranoid, but thought it would be better to enjoy sand fun in a safer environment.

Also a plan for the weekend and week... pick up the door for Eli's room! Yay! And we are measuring the kitchen to come up with some prices to gut it out. (we found a few styles we really like). And check out landscaping and fence costs...these bushes around the house need to go. They are all falling down and looking messy.

Anyway, here are some pictures. I know it is a long wordy post! Sorry!

PhotobucketEli is now saying Daddy. And when he says it, he screams so excitedly. Here he is seeing Daddy in the house and freaking out while Berlin is admiring a bug.
