Final Product

Well we finished the yard. Thursday Mom and Dad Mills came up and Mom helped me go buy the plants and Friday morning we planted everything! We found a few rocks to put in there and Emma and I have been painting some little rocks to add to our new yard! It's kind of hard to see in the picture maybe I can take a better picture if we ever see the sun around here! Later that day we headed up to Carnation, WA to my brother Bert's house to visit for a little bit and Jordan helped rebuild there fence on Saturday! So we had a very busy weekend but it was fun. We enjoyed visiting and Emma of course always has fun playing with her cousin Melia.

We only had a little accident while working in the yard. Dottie got away and started heading down the driveway but just couldn't stay upright on that steep driveway! So she scraped up her nose! Poor Dottie!

Working in the yard

Well this weekend we decided to rip up our yard and start over. We really didn't like the bushes that were out front and the ivy surrounding them. First we started by taking out all the little rocks that were being used as an edge. Then we started ripping out the ivy then Jordan decided just to rip out the trees too! My mom gave us some ideas as what to do to re landscape it. So next weekend we hope to finish our project. Jordan finally has two weekends in a row off.. so we decided to tackle the yard and get it done. So here is a before and after pic. And keep checking back to see what we eventually did with the yard.

Dottie taking her first steps!

We have another walker! She is still a little unstable but she can do it. She also had her one year check up on Wednesday and got 100%. I am sure she will be walking all over the place soon so watch out! And YES she is ok after her little fall. She got up and just laughed it off!

Dottie's 1st Birthday

We also celebrated Dottie's birthday! It didn't take her too long to figure out how to eat that cake.. Emma helped a little! Wow.. we now have a 3 year old and a 1 year old. We had a good time! And by the looks of it so did Dottie! Well I might get this blogging thing down we will see.

Easter Sunday 2007
