Recent Housework - Roof and Landscaping

We have recently completed some pretty major home improvement work. The roof and the gutters are complete! So now we can start on the landscaping. As you can see Ryan has done a GREAT job on the right side of the house landscaping. He weeded, prepped and planted the whole area all in 90 degree plus temperatures and humidity. He did have a helpful water girl, tool gopher and weed spotter. We put pine needles down and soaker hoses down too since we can't seem to get rain in TN.

Baby L's Nursery

The baby's nursery is ready - We are just waiting for the baby!

We got most of the pictures hung this weekend. The picture hung by the crib is one Heather's "gaga" made and it was in her childhood bedroom. The picture on the floor is one Heather took of a carousel. It is not in its final spot yet, because that is yet to be determined. The basket under the changing table already contains plenty of diapers. The pillow on the shelf is one that Heather's Aunt, Uncle, cousin and her husband gave us at the GP shower. It was a pillow we had spotted in downtown Franklin when the Damon family was in at the end of March. The blank picture frame in the corner is waiting for a picture of Baby L. The pictures near the chair are of a playground toy - Dumbo - taken one day when we were on a day trip to a nearby client. The other picture frame contains one of our favorite sayings. We will say this to our little one often as we think of our far off relatives.

"I see the moon, the moon sees me,

the moon sees someone I'd like to see.

God bless the moon, God bless me,

God bless the someone I'd like to see."
