New Yard!!

We finally got around to the yard after focusing so long on the inside. Here is the demo taking place, along with two special helpers And the finished product, or at least as far as we will get this fall, flowers and more mulch to come in the Spring. I finally smile when I look at my house, and the yard looks so much bigger. Can't wait for the kids to be able to run around out there!

So behind on updating

Sorry folks, I have been very bad about updating the blog. Today will just be a picture dump as I do not have time to write commentary but I wanted to share all the photos. Hopefully I will have some time to come back and edit in some thoughts to go a long with the photos. Visit from Uncle Dave at Christmas: New Year's at the Burrells Kitchen and bath renovation: Lot of extras including a trip from Aunt Jer and a trip from Grams and Grampa: Photos from our first Spring in MA: Sam's first birthday: Cape Cod with the Goodwins: Anna's 5th birthday: Anna's pre-school graduation: Summer 2012: August in Buffalo: And last but certainly not least, we lost a very important member of our family this year. Jesse, you were the best dog we could ever have asked for. You were always there to greet us each day and cuddle with us each night. We loved you so very much and miss you every day.

Pictures taken by Auntie Kristen

We visited Aunt Kristen and Uncle Darren's house over New Years, along with Grams and Grampa. Here are a few pics from the photo shoot. More pics to come soon from our visit with Uncle Dave!
