Valentine's Day 2009

Today we Caleb wanted to bake a cake for Shane to show him how much we love and appreciate him. He helped me make a cake for Shane and helped decorate it with the sprinkles...that is his favorite part. Other than getting to lick the icing off the spatula at the end. :)
Happy Valentine's Day Daddy! We love you very much!

Yard Work

Shane has said on several occasions that we needed to plant trees along the property line in the back yard. If you have been out to our house, then you know the back yard has tons of huge rocks in the ground and makes it virtually impossible to grow grass, let alone some trees. So, after being here 2 years we have finally done something about it...with the help of one of Shane's kind insureds. He loves to do this kind of work and actually offered to plant two trees for us for free. Unfortunately, I don't think he realized what he was getting himself into until he was well into it. The boys loved watching him out the window each day he was here. It was great entertainment for the boys. My boys love to watch anyone doing some sort of work in the yard...I'm sure they get that from their dad!
The final product turned out great and now all we have to do is water the trees and watch them grow.
