Tweaking my Blog

You may have noticed (or may not!) that I've changed a few things on my blog.

I'm still trying to get all my little things back, but so far I like how it's all turning out.

Opinions? Preferences?


Of course what I should have been doing is posting about Day #3 of our vacation, but you get this instead.


If you look closely at the tree, around the center of the picture, you'll see a face. :-) My MIL (hi, Vickey!) gave it to us when we were in Cedar City a few weeks ago. Ever since she visited us out here the first time, she's been thinking about how fun one of these faces would be on our very large trees. The kids love it!

Our Cannas have been pretty happy this year, and here's our first bloom of the season:

Fred, as usual, is not impressed.

(No, he's not dead, he's just enjoying the warm driveway.)

And no, I still haven't blocked my German doily. Maybe tomorrow. Today "we" worked on cleaning out Gillian's room and I'm exhausted. That would be Gillian's "royal we," which in this case means that I cleaned while she watched. I keep telling myself that she is six years old and that she'll get better about keeping her room clean.

I'm not holding my breath, though.
