So this is the beginnings of our 2009 garden... we have had sooooo much rain and it has grown a lot since then. I will send an update soon. This is TJ's therapy patch.

Front part is my creation of lots of flowers with Olivia helping me with the marble pathway.

HAPPY 10th BIRTHDAY TO OLIVIA!!

We had a "California Sun" theme - Olivia is in the orange.

A couple weeks ago, Julianna had a flat tire on her car. The boys showed her how to put the donut on and she took it to meet Michael to go to a wedding together.... The donut blew and she pulled off the road. She let it beside the road for us to come pick the tire up and get it repaired. We got home from a fundraiser kinda late and let it set overnite.... well, at 1:00 am some kids decided to have a little fun and doused it with gasoline and probably sat some distance away to watch it blow up. So no more little white LeBaron convertible. :( She is so very sad. When I went to look at it, I was immediately grateful..... grateful that she wasn't in it. I thanked the Lord and just couldn't imagine being a parent looking at this sight, knowing your child was in it. We are very grateful.
