What we've been up to so far this summer (or is it fall?!?... brrr)

I continue to enjoy getting a good bargain. Jenny and I took advantage of KMarts coupon doubling this week. Here are just a couple of my good deals. The barbecue sauce was free, each package of diapers was six dollars and the cereal was 90 cents. I admit that I've never bought this kind of cereal before and I always think it's a waste of money even if it is a "good deal" to buy things you wouldnt normally. But they made a great snack for the kids and Darrin really liked them...and they're already gone!
Darrin started off his summer vacation with some landscaping which he (and the kids) really enjoy. He extended the landcaping in the front of our yard around more to the side by adding more bricks and plants. It looks really nice. We just need to get more wood chips.

And he added this to the side of our house. All these rocks came from the Sharps farm. He picked up every one by himself, and you may not be able to tell from the picture, but there are some huge rocks in there :). In addition to the rocks, he flattened out the yard a bit so there isn't as much of a slope. We're just waiting for the grass to grow in and it will look perfect.



We've enjoyed our dinners from the grill.


This big man has moved up to this bigger bike. Sometimes I look at him and forget he's still only 3 and 1/2. He's getting so big and acting so old :(...where does the time go?! And he DOES wear a helmet when riding the bike but I just needed to snap this quick picture, and he was happy to oblige.


And Annabelle...well...


she just

keeps


right on


dancing!

We LOVE Reese's Puffs! Keith could probably eat an entire box in 1 sitting and I love eating it right from the box for a night time snack :)
