Saturday

Well, you already know what we did on Friday. Here's what we did on Saturday...

Davey and Elisabeth LOVE veggie tales. Their favorite part is the silly songs. And luckily you can find an awful lot of them on youtube. Here the kids are watching the bunny song Saturday morning.

After breakfast we went to Grandma's house to do some yardwork...and play in the back yard :) Tink trying to decide where to use her sidewalk chalk.

It was unbelievably hot on Saturday. I LOVE the heat, but even I was wondering how we would accomplish anything in these temperatures!


There were construction workers hard at work on my sister's house so we started with the backyard. First we trimmed the trees that border the park.


Then we trimmed the bushes around the front of the house. I wish I'd gotten a before picture, but suffice it to say that the pile of trimmings was very, very big!


That tree by the window came down too. These trees sprout up all over the place. This one is a little too close to the house. Plus, they grow like weeds ;)

I only just planted this flower bed for Mother's Day but it was already overrun too.



I planted this purple plant when we lived in the basement suite. I was commenting to Andrew that it needed a serious haircut and Andrew asked me what the plant was. "I'm not sure, I just bought it because it's supposed to attract butterflies." Well, what do you know?! Here's a butterfly.

What has Ellie's attention? Uncle Rob is teaching Davey how to swing!
