Saturday

Do you know what happens when you neglect your yard for a year? Well, let me tell you, you get REALLY behind. Yesterday was gorgeous here (in fact Justin even cranked on the A/C for the first time this year). The sunshine gave us the perfect opportunity to spend the day outside trying to catch up (impossible!)

I took this picture last week - the sun finally broke through the rain clouds. Maybe, just maybe, we will have summer afterall.

Jason found a comfy spot on the neighbors grass and quietly laid there for over an hour. I asked him if I could take his picture. He was cool with it.

Less than 10 minutes after the above picture, I had to run back in for my camera to capture this:

He was out. And to our surprise he slept there for quite awhile.


When he woke up he moved into the garage...

and crashed


This too lasted at least a half hour and then, finally, he made it up to bed to finish his nap.

Jason wasn't the only one catching some zzz's outside. Katie napped in the shade while I attempted to weed part of the yard.

The girls also worked outside (washing the outdoor table/chairs and trimming the grass around the playset), but they spent most of the day playing with the neighborhood kids.

Lunch was served in the cabana.

Justin spent most of the day powerwashing. That really wasn't our plan, but once he got started he just couldn't stop. He cleaned off the driveway, sidewalk, and part of the fence. I should have taken before and after pictures cause it made a huge difference – it all looked so much cleaner… except for Justin. He was a MESS by the end of the day.
