Lovin' the sunshine

We love the spring! It's the time of new beginnings and lots of color (which we don't see much of for months here in Indiana). We love our house in the spring/summer and enjoy being outside.

Check out our awesome new mini-van:)

This is the back of our house. Sorry about the dog taking a wiz to the right, he has no manners:)


This is our backyard (it goes out to the woods where we have a campfire area). For those that don't know, when we first bought our house the whole open area of grass was full of trees, weeds, brush, and tall grass (very unkept). So with a little help from Natalie's family and some heavy machinary, we knocked everything down to make a yard. The burn pile was as large as our house (no joke). You know it's big when you have to call the fire department before you light it on fire:) It was a lot of work, but well worth it.
What is a blog without a picture of Jarrett! As long as we have good weather, Natalie and Jett take a walk everyday (and if Daddy is home, he and Samson go too).

Great Blog!!! I hope you don't mind me reading it. I got to it through Dina's blog. I am just starting my blog and I like to read others and get ideas. Your house is beautiful! And Jarrett has to be the cutest red head! Be ready...once they start walking..they go everywhere. But it is a blast! How blessed you and your family are! Have a great day!
