We're having a....

....Muchacha!!!

We have a cute video clip of telling the girls that we're expecting another little sista, but I'm having trouble uploading it for some reason. I'll post it later. Any name suggestions?

Here's some pics from a while back I've been meaning to post. My great friend amy and I weeded our entire yard one day and the results were incredible enough to post. Plus I want to remember the sweat and blood shed during the whole process, so I'll never do this again. It was back breaking.

We moved an entire pond from our entryway to our backyard and converted it to a garden. Here's the before on the side of our house......

here's the AFTER on the side of our house... Mom helped lay the brick stones!!!

Here's the after of the pool now in our backyard..... This part was also done with the help of my amazing mother.

Here's the endless weed-fest.... BEFORE.....

this is the same view of the photo previous to this one AFTER weeding and then planting lime and lemon trees....

We left a little room for something down the road... maybe a hot tub???

We took the kids for a fun family night out at the drive in movies. We saw "Up" and it was soooo fun. We stuffed ourselves full of licorice, popcorn, drinks, and granola bars. It was so fun to stay up late with all of us huddled together in our van.

For father's Day, my good friend Allison gave us the great idea of a yearly tradition to make Daddy a silly tie that he has to wear to church. This is our second year. Addie and Abigail's tie is the feathery one- made especially for "Papa Mike" in Utah. We had about a billion kids over to help share the fun. Sunday was really neat to see which dad's were brave enough to wear their ties and which ones were chickens! Here's a few of the masterpieces!

We've been keepin' busy this month... went to the beach with our awesome friends...

I'll post more later :)
