We had our first guest to our back yard today. We had Andrews friend Mathias over and his parents came and we roasted hot dogs and had smores over the fire. And the boys went in the hot tub also. We love Mathias. He is so well behaved and polite. Andrew and Mathias are best friends. They love to play together. They both love Pokemon and Nintendo DS Pokemon games. We are very happy that they like to play together. Not all little boys are so easy to have over.
Gary and Vincent went and played Paintball with the scouts group. They went to someone property in Issaquah and they had some woods that the boys can play in and shoot each other till it hurts. Gary come home with welts all over his body. One of the boys did not follow the rules and would shoot too close to the kids. Vincent did pretty well and got only one welt. It was a beautiful day today. They got lucky and did not have to play in the rain. Not that that would have stopped them. Vincent would like to buy a paint ball gun now. He has started looking on Ebay to find a good deal.
Our Gardner for our front yard quit on us. Because he wanted to do more in our yard. I think our yard is too small for him now that he is getting more busy. Kind of ticked me off. He does all our neighbors yards now. We recommended him to alot of people. It only takes him 5 minutes really to mow it. He has all his stuff our for the neighbors. Oh well...........I need to let it go. Vincent is big enough now that he can cut the grass. And now we have even more grass in the back for him to cut. He is into doing chores now, so he can get an allowance. It's a pain to keep track of but it is good for him to save and spend his own money now. He is finding that he is spending it on stupid stuff and then when he really wants some thing he does not have it. Good lessons to learn.
Andrews face is getting better. He went in the hot tub and was worried about the glue coming off. He forgot at first then remembered. It was fine. The glue is still on and working great. He didn't even get bruised that much.
My body is so sore and tired. I pulled all the weeds out front and planted a few more bulbs. I think I will go in the hot tub and go straight to bed!

Hey Diva! Cute blog. What the heck though? No invite for the Westra's in the newly beautified back yard? I'm hurt and stunned! I think I am going to take it personally forever and ever that we were not the first to embark on the freshly tilled eath at the Sarchet residence. :) You need to have us over sometime and vice versa now that the weather is slightly cooperative. See you soon! Julie, The Younger
The yard looks great. I was surprised to read that Gary did not end up in the emergency room after paint balling! Good job gary!!
Get that Vincent out working in the yard!then he can make the money for the gun!
Love ya,
Allison
