Something old, something new....

We've been busy this weekend... and I've been blogging away!  

Our goal was to get the deck stained, but as we all know, weather didn't pan out.  So yesterday morning Kevin decided it was time to start building the fence (yay!).  It was the pre-existing fence behind the deck and the goal was to disassemble, then reassemble in the area between the yard and car port: mission accomplished!

I can't say I did much to help (aside from some unsolicited, and I'm sure unwelcome, opinions), but below is my photojournalistic interpretation of Kevin's weekend.

Kev The Great for the win!

Here's how it all started: a few pieces of fence in need of 4x4 posts and a straight line.


Aaaah, the look of love...  ;)



Farewell trusty party tub....you were arguably the best $6 we ever spent.


What a romantic guy!




A journalistic fail.  I was inside blogging for most of this and neglected my responsibilities.



One man and his bad-ass drill!

And there you have it.  A new fence!  Minus the obvious missing right slat... and a huge pile of dirt.  I think the next step will be planting a lilac bush next to the gate.

That's all for now!

Apparently little Miss Abigail wants to say hi!....she's been kicking up a storm while I type and officially graduated from soccer player to The Karate Kid this weekend!

(...but as I finished typing she stopped kicking...I think I embarrassed her.  And so it begins!)

Have a great week everyone!

20 week ultrasound

Yesterday Kevin and I went to our 20 week ultrasound.  Everything looked great and the two questions still lingering in my mind were confirmed. 1) Yes, it's a boy! 2) Nope, I'm not having twins  :) I've heard it a million times: with each pregnancy you pop a little sooner, but when I was in maternity pants at 12 weeks, I thought surely there must be two in there... Here are some pictures, if you'd like to see. During George's 20 week ultrasound Kevin admitted he'd almost fallen asleep, so I will admit: I had a hard time staying awake this time  :) But we did get to see him in 4D ultrasound which we've never done before, so that was really cool. So fun! After our appointment we went to breakfast at Salish Lodge and took my first Month of Bumps picture. (cue shrills of excitement from everyone eager to see belly pics for the next 4 months!) Before taking the picture I (lovingly) assured Kevin that yes, we would be taking...

Merry Christmas!

May your day be Merry and Bright!

A Suburban NYE

We partied hard with neighbors for New Year's Eve this year, and it was perfect - no need to dress up, tackle crowds, or spend big bucks - add to that great friends who are also neighbors, and it's a win/win.
