Fishing

Hannah bugged Brent all weekend long to go fishing. It was killing her that Colton and his friend Gage was going without her.



Monday evening we headed down to the pond. This made Hannah a happy Hannah.



I was told to let everyone know she caught 7. After every fish she caught, she would ask her brother if he had caught any yet. I'm raising a true smartass :)



This was the biggest one she caught.



Colton was fishing for bass. I wanted to take a picture of his fish but he didn't catch anything until I went back to the house. Not sure if I believe that one :)

Sod Saga Continued

So Saturday morning everybody got up bright and early to get started.



Colton and Hannah were a great help.









Can't wait for the grass to turn green :)

Sod

Happy Memorial Day. Hope you are having a good one. We have had a very productive weekend. It's nice to get all of those little projects done. We had one big project to get done this weekend. Laying down sod.



We had 5 pallets to get laid down.



That's were it was going. Brent worked all Friday evening getting it leveled and ready to go.







This is the foredog. He is always making sure things are getting done right.



He's like me; breaks are more fun.



Brent worked after the sun went down. He is a dedicated sod putter downer.

Check back tomorrow for more pictures of our sod project.

This is what we are working on today. More details to come.

Poser

I did this LO for a challenge at Sketch This .



Wish me luck :)

Bad Boy

This is what Brent brought home on Friday. It's his new baby.



It makes him so happy.



He let us test drive it. Here is Colton.



Hannah is not quite big enough to go by herself.

I got to drive it too. I was told I was tearing up the lawn. Guess I won't be mowing anytime soon :)

Grandpa & Grandma Ward

I borrowered pictures from my sister Shelly so I could get copies of them. They are of my dad's parents. They had 9 kids.



This is of my Grandpa Ward. I never knew him; he past away before I was even a thought. He died suddenly while sitting in his rocking chair. One of the stories I remember people telling about him is that he was very hard of hearing and wore some type of hearing device. When people came over to visit he would sit in his rocking chair, turn down his hearing aid down and just smile and nodded his head making people think he was listening to them. Too funny.



This is my Grandma Ward. Wasn't she a hottie? Absolutely gorgeous. She died in her 80s. One story that stands out about her is when they would take road trips she always took food. To reheat things she would set things out near the rear window. Very green before being green was cool.

I'm planning on doing a scrapbook page using these pictures so if you've seen some paper that would be perfect to use please let me know.
