Spring Cleaning

So this may seem like a lame post to most of you, but it's mostly for my mom. You see, when she was here visiting a few weeks ago, she walked onto my back patio and said, "Jenny, we do humanitarian aid for people like this." It was truly a disaster. The bushes were totally overgrown, there were sand and leaves all over the concrete, the bunny hutch had tons of yucky stuff underneath it, and I had so many outdoor toys that my kids could barely walk out there, much less play with/on any of it.

Look Ma, I've simplified. I about killed myself doing it, but worked for 3 days to get everything cleaned up (Derek wasn't so happy with me for overdoing it while he was at work). Now the kids play out there all the time. Ryan can even ride his scooter around - that's saying something. I'm ready for summer visitors to come and play.

Hi Jenny,

We would love to come play with your "new" patio. Would the 30th work for you? Abby

Jennifer! Your house is beautiful and so much fun for kids. It reminds me of what I try to do here at my house - HAVE FUN! The only thing that looks different to me now is - where did you get the castle and where are the other Little Tykes? Oh - I didn't see the roses last time!

Glad we could help you out by borrowing the play structure. My kids love it!
