More Patio pix

The front of the house will soon have a crabapple tree




A fence and two trees will hopefully be by the end of the week

Look at those cuts! What a pain in the A**!


The patio is done. Now we wait for trees and the fence and hope that all the stupid weeds go away!

Ava eats an oyster




A couple of weeks ago we went to Shucks for dinner. Donnie insisted on getting a few oysters. I don't like them. But Ava ate one no problem, only off of a fork however, she didn't want to touch it. She then gave the "thumbs up" of approval.

Ava news




This morning was the first day of kindergarden (sniff, sniff). Ava was very excited to go. Amari was MAD that we work her up so early. Oh well hopefully all goes well today. Last Friday Ava went to the hair salon to get her first real hair cut. I know I'm a little delayed in doing this. But I had to take pictures of it. She did a great job allowing Curtis to comb cut and blow dry her hair. Now I need to learn to braid. I think we will have to get Amari's cut soon too it's a little unruly. So much hair to deal with!

Patio





This is what a $12,000 patio looks like (at least that is what the bid said). Yeah right. Donnie worked his tail off the last 2 weekends putting this patio together. It was a lot of work! It's not quite finished yet but I think he has done a fantastic job. Hopefully we will have a nice little party on it someday.

A quiet Sunday





What do we do on a quiet Sunday while daddy is working hard on the new patio? Take pictures, dance, read books and other goofy things. Miss Ava starts kindergarden in 16 days and I'm freaking out a little bit. She is thrilled. I will survive I guess. I will upload photos of the patio in progress later. Hope you are having a good weekend.
