Mother's Day Weekend!





 We are loving this spring weather that's helping all the leaves burst out! It's finally green!!:) Our town had a hot air balloon show this wkend and we saw some from our place!   


For mother's day we celebrated with steak lunch at Mom and Dad's, supper on the new deck and a quad ride and walk thru the pasture! Was a perfect day! 



Some little pretties, close up!


Some of the deck and Reagan cleaning up the mess made by the trenching! We have a make-shift railing on the deck right now, just until we find what we're looking for!

New Deck - in the making

So here are a few photos of the deck building process! We ran into a little water trouble and had to dig a trench with weeping tile, etc.. But it is mostly done now! Just the railing and redoing the front decking to match and it's good to go! 

 Before photo, hydro-digging holes for the pilings, cement, and the trenching mess! 
Ash came down to help us!!  And Trevor too - they were speedy - it took them 2 1/2 days! :)
 ..some lovely wet weather so they could enjoy working in the mud! ;)

Will post more after the railing is up!

Spring is on it's way!

We had a beautiful sunny day a couple weeks ago and Ash, Shel and Zoey came down for a visit! After lunch we skipped along out to the creek for dessert - Ash's yummy skor cookies!:)

Pretty moss..
Enjoying the cookies and sunshine!
... the kids enjoyed playing 'Mom and Dad' with Zoey as the baby! :0)
