I’ll have to keep searching for pictures of the front yard before all of this crap, but this is after we worked hard on the back yard to make it a good play area for the kids and their friends and what not. It was so green, and we could even walk barefoot back there!!! Oh I love the Mountains in the background! This was taken end of May I believe.
The Day he Trenched-Mid June. Its been 4 weeks today since he did this.
NOW-
-This weed is growing in a trench…seriously.
YES, that is a huge pole sticking up out of the ground all ridiculous like. GRRRR
My lovely yard… July 15, 2009
Luck… July 15, 2009
Well…We haven’t got any!
We’ve looked high and low for a place. I swear I’ve spent the same amount of hours looking as Dave has spent working! Luckily he’s stopped at places on the way home from work. Everywhere is so expensive! Well I guess its not that its expensive, its just that its nicer, and we’ve been paying cheap rent, for an awful place. Well I guess its not THAT awful, but it really could be a LOT better.
I just took pictures of my yard…they dug it up a month ago to put sprinklers in, and haven’t done anything since. As I was taking pictures, I remembered I had taken pictures, a few days before they dug it up, to show how hard Dave and I had worked on making the yard REALLLLY nice. We were evening paying a neighborhood kid to mow it! He even weedeated the yard. I feel bad, cause now we aren’t paying him to do it, so he’s losing out on that money, but…oh well.
So, I’m thinking that we’ll find a place soon. In fact, we did find a place, out by Daybreak (West JOrdan, new nice area-google it, if you don’t know) we just need to pass the application process. Grrrr.
We’d stay in this place if only a few things were different. The main one if it were closer to work. Poor Dave spends over an hour in the car just driving too and from work, and its worse in the Winter, and most days he comes home just tired from being in the car, and I feel bad. How nice would it be to live 15 minutes from work again? Thats how it’d be if we lived in Daybreak.
Oh well. So, I think I’ll be making a post of before and after pictures of my yard, in the near future here…I just need to get it off my camera…Maybe in a few minutes…we’ll see! LOL
New Car :) July 6, 2009
Our car was approaching 100,000 miles, and the husband was tired of driving it 80 miles a day or more. Dodge dealership was having some deals, so we went in there just to see. We cleaned out our car just in case, but weren’t expecting anything…well we came home with this! 2009 Dodge Calibur SXT. Its a sweet car. What we like in it, is its better gas mileage, little cooler set up in the glove compartment for pop bottles, rechargeable flashlight in the trunk, and AUX plug for our zunes, so we don’t have to use an FM transmitter anymore! WOOT!!!
It had about 1,000 miles on it when we got it, but we’ve been driving all over looking for…..HOUSES!!!! Yeah we need to move, but I think thats another post in itself. I’m not gonna make a promise on a post, becuase I never follow thru, sorry about that…I know I need to do better, but I’m a little stressed out about some things going on at home!!!!
Hope y’all are doin’ well! I hope you had a good fourth of July too!!! We did!
