Getting the backyard ready for summer!

Since we have gotten this earlier shift I have been doing a ton of yard work. It seems as if I am in the yard at least some every night. This past Saturday with the help of Shaileen's Dad we got the garden ready and tilled it. It makes the backyard look so much better. We are excited to start planting within the next couple weekends. This year we are planning to plant:
-Tomatoes
-several different kinds of peppers
-beans
-beets (bears eat beets)
-carrots
-cantaloupe
-pumpkins
-potatoes
-zucchini
I am sure we will do more as well... that is all I can think of right now.

We also purchased a new patio set. It is very nice to be able to sit outside and eat our dinner and just relax. It will be even better when it is warmer because in the evenings it is still a little chilly.

Before...

After...

Today we had a guy come cut down our 3 pine trees. There should be a post on that probably tomorrow as soon as he finishes all of the way.

PS. Thank you for following our blog and supporting Shaileen and I. We truly appreciate it.

Hot Tub & Rats

We decided that we did not want our hot tub anymore so we put it up on KS L for free. This guy called and came and got it today!  

He had a huge forklift which really helped

It looks so much better with out it in our back yard!

It was a tight fit through the side of our house.

See ya!

We are so happy to have it outta there. We are going to be planting grass there

We pulled up the plywood after we were done and we found two rats that were dead! It was pretty gross...

Motocross last night at RMR

Last night Kurt and I went out to Rocky Mountain Raceway to watch some motocross with his awesome sister Kimberly her husband Jason and their two sweet boys DJ and Alex... It was a blast!!! I did get many pictures but we sure had fun. We left a little early because it got pretty cold but there was an awesome sunset on our way out!!

Professional Critique of my Work

Back on 5/15/2011 I had a pretty awesome day! As many of you know I have a real love for photography. There is this photographer from Scotland that I follow on Youtube. I sent him a request to critique my work. I was pleased that he did as he sometimes takes over a year to critique peoples work and only took about 2 months to do mine. Check out the video. My work starts at about the 8:00 mark in the video!

What an awesome day!
