From a Pool and a Deck to a Bench

After much conversations we have decided to take the pool down... It kind of made me sad to see it go good memories. The kids had such a good time playing water volleyball for the last 6 years. Last summer it was not used much at all so we figured the time was over. We used the decking and are in the process of building a corner seating area on the back porch. Half of it is done it is a mom wanted projected and boys did not but I know there is more memories ahead for us to have sitting on the back porch...

Biggest Looser...

I am going to be taking part in a Biggest Looser Challenge at work. We are doing this for 10 weeks starting a week from Monday. I am so excited, I am not really a competitive person but I think this will be so much fun. Work is going great but next week I will be on my own the other girl who answers the phones will be on vacation,eek. We are taking down the pool we did not use it much at all last year and feel like we are done with it, the cool thing is we found someone with 3 kids with different special needs that is going to come get it, that makes me feel good. I think a backyard makeover is in the future. Kyle and Trey are working like crazy seem to be good with that. We working on getting Kyle an automobile (Suzuki Samurai) long story. Kyle will be done with school the week after spring break we are so proud of him.. I know I am going to cry so hard in June when the graduation is and probably in two weeks too. David is working today and he will have his review and inventory soon so pray for that to go well. That is all I have for now ...

The front of the house is done YEA

We and I use that term loosely... got the front yard and entryway done.. but now we sold the pool and have the backyard to do I guess. Oh well what else would we be doing. Amy helped with the front flowerbeds Thanks you so much hugs and kisses to you. Kyle and Trey worked all weekend. All is good here..

Looking Better

Our front yard is looking better. Thanks to Amy I was able to go get my dirt for my front flowerbeds. Thanks to Brian and Michael I got it all unloaded into the beds. Now we just have to figure out what to plant. Kyle is working at subway and seems to be liking it ok. Trey is still at Arbys. So noone is here when I get home from work. I get to pick up the house and have some quite time :). Both boys worked all weekend so that is why I had Brian and Michael help me unload the dirt. Amy and I were like Thelma and Lousie driving down I35 with a load of dirt and the wind blowing 35 miles an hour that day.. it was funny. Sunday we helped Michelle with speech and then had dinner together. Lots of fun. Monday was very busy with the phones at work I took like 75 calls in 8 hours. Well off to cook dinner.
