Belleville Visit

Shots of Grandma's new patio, Lucky the cat, and some of us on the deck. Our outfits coordinated (isn't she cute in her pink?), so I had to take some shots.

St. Louis Visit

Covered a lot this weekend in St. Louis. Outback Steakhouse on Friday night, Queeny Park and shopping on Saturday, lunch with Eric, and Hacienda on Saturday night. Sunday included church, going to Grandmas and then dinner with Jaclyn and Katie Sunday night. It was a great visit and good to be back. I took some shots while I was there, including pictures of Mom and Dad's new Toyota Camry.

Dad's House Project

Enough already about our house project, Dad and Mom have one of their own. They re-did the landscaping in the backyard and around the side of the house. Hard to believe that all the ivy that Dad always got poison ivy from all these years is finally gone. And I can't get over how big some of the trees that we planted when I was little have gotten so big! It was a beautiful day on Saturday when I was in town and Dad was out there cementing the step from the door into the garage, I took some shots.

John's Little Yellow Corvette

John went crazy and rented a Corvette when he was in LA last week. I guess that's what it takes to snap a pic of him...put him in front of a yellow Corvette every time! Anyway, I love this picture, and I wanted to share it with you all.

House Being Painted

I'm a couple weeks behind, but I want to take some new pictures this weekend after we finish unpacking all of our boxes.  And I couldn't not share the in-progress pics first. The ones from when we painted.  Here are some of the main room and the kitchen. 

I think I watched enough baseball to last me the rest of the season..

The Cards were in town this weekend. John and I went with Eric and Rocky on Friday night, and then I went with the girls today (two of the girls I was with, Carrie and Sarah, are from St. Louis, too). They lost both games but I still had a lot of fun. Both were good games. Too, the number of Cardinal fans there was amazing! 

The First Supper

We had a little picnic at the house on Tuesday night. I really think John just wanted to sit in the womb chair for a little bit.  It was nice to use our kitchen table and chairs again, and Cole had a blast checking out all the rooms and the backyard.
