HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRIAN!!!!!!

Yesterday was Brian's 23rd birthday and Cinco de Mayo. Two reasons to celebrate with a FIESTA!!! We had family and friends over for some yummy mexican food which my grandma and I made. We also celebrated with a pinata and cake and ice cream. And not to mention a dance off in which we got to show off our skills...

Yard work...

Three weeks ago Brian and I decided it was finally time to get to work on our yard. We had been putting it off for awhile. Most of our lawn was just dead grass and not to mention half rock. So we had to completely tear it up and haul the rock. We had help from family and friends which made it happen a lot faster and I am so thankful for thier willingness to help. I don't think I've ever worked physically hard like that in my life, but in the end it was worth it. We put wood trim around the flower beds and put some of the rock next to the drive way. We planted grass seed and some flowers. Two things I have never done before. We also planted a tree. So now we just get to sit back and watch the grass grow. I didn't think I would ever be this excited about grass...but I have to say being a homeowner gets me excited about a lot of things!
