Kalahari Baby

This weekend we had a reunion of my friends from UW Stevens Point. We stayed at the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells. Ben had his first swim! He wasn't real sure about it but was a good sport and only cried once. It was so great to see everyone - our lives are so different now with our families.

Thursday



I got a little more done on the wall this evening, and started working on the steps.

Yard pics





It's now 18 days since we planted the lawn. My dad and I put another couple of feet on the stone wall on Saturday... almost ready to put in some steps.

Sorry - I'll try to be better









Sorry it's been so long. Here are a few of the latest pictures of the boy, and of the projects in the yard.

13 days ago, my dad and I planted the lawn... and after 12 maddening days of running around getting soaked by sprinklers and clopping through mud... now we have a greenish hue.

Then we are also working on a fieldstone retaining wall that divides the front yard from the back yard on the east side of the house.
