No More Sunburn

After starting at the Shopko in Bountiful, I stopped to check out the Centerville DI and found Seth the dresser I have been searching for for a year.  I've wanted something wide and low with lots of drawers.  I will get pictures as soon as we get it cleaned up.  But first Dan had to pick it up before Harlie's baptism this afternoon.  So Saturday morning started early, around 6:30, we pulled all of the weed in the flower bed surrounding the north east corner of the house and the flower bed in the front yard surrounding the three electrical boxes.  I think we could have planted them closer together, but Dan faithfully read all of the information and suggestions and tried planting them 5 feet apart.  He transplanted the forsythia bush I got for Mothers day to the front in hopes that it will grow taller than the 3 dwarf burning bushes with out blocking traffic at the corner ~ because I am sick of looking at these green boxes, three different colors of green, all bad colors of green boxes that my children like to dance and shake their groove thing on top of...  I don't know what looks worse, the kids performing their hearts out as cars drive by or me in my wide brimmed tea party hat protecting my poor sad sunburned scalp.

By the time we finished, Chloe kept asking Dan if he needed a break.  His whole head was sweating.  It got too warm too fast and we had to take a break for breakfast.  Chloe came into help and accidentally brushed all 24 eggs off of the counter and on to the floor.  Pancakes were enjoyed by all.

Still got Sunburned

Seth caught this fish all by himself on his new sponge bob (floating) fishing pole!

Seth liked to go faster than Chloe in the tube!

Dan took the kids fishing on Friday morning after I was up all night, unable to sleep.  He let me stay home to catch up on some sleep!  So nice!!!  Laura called around 9 AM with the deal of the day:  Shopko was clearing out their garden center.  After loading up my little car twice with an assortment of bushes and shrubs at 90% off, I only spent $36.46!!!

I don't know what all of the plants are.  I went to three different Shopko's to get them all.  I never even saw the lake, but I still got sunburned on the back of my neck...  Go Figure!
