TOTALLY Wiped out!

Well we had quite a weekend! All of us were totally spent after the Karley ordeal. As you can see.....TOTALLY SPENT!

Pickles anyone?

Ok, so maybe 4 plants of cucumbers are one too many. WOW.... we have alot of cucumbers. So this weekend I found a recipe for freezer pickles....cheap and easy. Salt them, soak them, and then freeze them. Of course you add vinegar and sugar....we will see. It takes 3 week in the freezer. The only thing we will be out is the bag. If we get food poisoning, you know it will be on here. :)

Love the leg warmers!

Karley decided on Saturday morning that she would take a brisk jog.....with a complete stranger. Rich let her out to go to the bathroom and she decided to take off and chase this guy on a bicycle for a mile. Poor Rich took off in his pajamas and tried to chase her down. He did not get very far, so he had to come back for the truck. Lets just say Karley looked like she should be eating sushi somewhere, the way her eyes were slanted once he got to her. After they returned we noticed that she was limping. She ran so fast and hard that she ripped her paws off.....yes this can happen. Or at least she ripped the paw pads off. Bless her heart, we had to wrap her front feet in gauze and neosporin. Mom had sent these socks for Klondike (RIP) for her when we thought her feet were bothering her. Thank God, Karley got to be stylin' and profilin' this weekend.....she looked cute, but she is still a dork.

Outside home...

We love to hang out outside. It is like home away from home without being away from home.....does that make sense? This weekend Rich hung a fan, made a shelf for the stereo and put the stereo speakers up. It is great. We can swim and listen to music or sit out there and unwind. We love it!!! Look how big those plants are getting, the heat water and sun does a plant good!

Rich made this log holder thing for the firepit (that is the technical name for it) It looks SO much nicer!

Thank God for the Joy! Those tie ties come in handy here in redneckville! What will we do when Dad retires, my gosh we will have to buy them ourselves!!! Oh the horror!

Again....thank God for the Joy. Fan....14.00, screw....0.01....black tieties that my fatherlaw dug out of the sweeper pile....priceless. :)

Another picture of the forest.....wonder who is love with the pond?

One more thing...

If you need a laugh, check out www.theadventchurch.com for some pretty funny VBS videos. Tucker in day two is HILARIOUS!!! YOu can tell the child has watched Dancing with the Stars this season!

Happy Father's Day!

What makes a father???? These little farts.....Happy Fathers Day to all the dad's, grandpa's and pa's out there. Without you.....well there would be no us....but lets not think about that, cuz that's nasty. :)

Our first veggie!

This looks like some sick VeggieTales character. This is our first squash and zucchini, we had them on Sunday. Rich was so excited to get something out of his garden. I just want the tomatoes!
