A weekend of yard work and being outside
Just another weekend at home and doing yard work. The kids played outside from the morning till dark both days. Remember all photos can be clicked on for a large view.

The kids were grounded from 0800 till 1200 on Saturday morning for going down to Hayden's house (5 houses down) without asking Friday night... So, Saturday morning they sorted laundry, cleaned the toy room and their room, yard work, and wrote "I will not leave without permission twice". Then they were allowed outside to play afterwards.
Amber and Frank were able to make two trips to Shelly on the Snake River to gather lots of river rock for the yard. We were able to get enough to finish the back bush/fence line in the backyard.
Frank took the wooden posts we used to edge and cut them up making a barrier around the garden in the back corner.
Other then that... nothing much happening. We busted out the croquet Sunday night and played about 20 rounds of the game. The girls didn't get to sleep until 2100 each night, but slept till 0930 each morning which was nice... We biked down to the greenbelt and had a picnic one night and hiked along the river with the girls.

The girls helped with weeding the rose and flower area. All 7 rose bushes we planted this year have many buds on them ready to bloom. The yellow wild rose bush has over 100 bloomed roses on it now.
The red one in the front is getting ready to bust open with about 20. We planted peach color, white, yellow, and what's called a "double delight"... a red and white rose.
