A great weekend...

We got so much accomplished. The fenced in yard is totally complete, with gate and all. So nice to go in there and let Faith run around, knowing the neighbors aren't staring at us, the neighborhood wandering dogs can't get it, Faith can play to her hearts content. We just have to stain it at some point, but for now it's fantastic! Daddy also got Faith swing set all put together, one last finishing touch is to find the right bolts to hang her baby swing on it too, we left off one swing in order to do that. She just loves it and as we predicted when it's time to come inside she says "no, no, no". John also got our planter box finished around our mailbox, and i planted flowers there and in a couple containers. So the yard is a bit more "pretty". We fixed our flag pole holder thing so we can now hang out our flag again. Oh and don't forget about the big memorial day NBFD parade, it last all of 1 minute and contained the NBFD ambulance, 3 fire trucks and 1 fire truck each from W. Carthage and Deferiet. What a cruddy parade, LOL. Only in Natural Bridge, would they call 6 vehicles a parade and at $5 a gallon for diesel waste it to drive around the block. We did end up going out to dinner Saturday night, just John and I. It was really delicious and nice to get out alone for a while. Sunday we had a picnic in our new fenced in area with his mom, Marty, Helen and Doug, that was great too, lots of visiting and it's always more fun to eat outside, i wonder why that is? Well hope everyone else had a great weekend!
