Flowers in the Fountain and Mama Deer w/ Fawn


Another spotting of our little backyard fawn and her mama. We've seen them 4 times now!

Here is our remodeling of the fountain. Painted it and added some flowers! I hope I can keep them alive. I included some pics of the hedges for those of you who saw them before they were clipped.....a transformation!!!

I'm not sure if this will work, but here is a link to where you can see what the fountain looked like before....

I love our flowers! haha...

Our garden is back there on the left....Onions, lettuce, tomatoes, basil, rosemary, watermelon, zucchini, strawberries, cucumbers, green beans!!!




We were just gifted with some play structures from a friend...she gave us 3, and we have 2 up so far. You can see one of the on the right. They are the perfect size for Dominic, and he just loves the slides on them!! Also, notice we ripped out the nasty rock garden on the porch. Joe is going to put cement into tonight, and then we'll cover it with a rug or something....The chipmunks are going to be sad, because they were traveling on and off the porch through a hole in the dirt in there. icky! (And more hedges along the porch here)

One final shot....:)

Park Days

All these photos were taken about 3-4 weeks ago. Some were taken at a park in walking distance from us (or at least it was before we moved), and others were taken at a farm a few miles away that is open to the public. We also have some good ones of little Daniel. Unfortunately some are a little blurry, but we couldn't resist putting them in because he's such a cutie.

This is taken at that park nearby. Joe using his cool wide angle lense.




Signing "more...."

This has got to have a cool caption...I just can't think of one...maybe you can!






Two John Dougovetos!




Kisses for Daniel

We love visits from Howard and Angela!



Little John






Nothing more fun than trying to squeeze into one of those diaper boxes.




That's all for now. Sorry I'm always late....but to be honest, that's probably not going to change any time soon:)
