Because Boys Need Cute Things Too.....

A fire shirt for Trey

Thought it needed a little something more,

the FD & maltese cross on the pocket-

cute, right!

And because she was such a good helper

at craft time.....

She got a "hup-cake"

Us, Crafty!!!

Mel and I found this really great idea

and thought, "we could do that"

So, we did.....

cute little birdies

a hen for Kaylie,

probably my favorite!

my cute bird on a branch

More cute birdies-

Mel's idea & I just copied it for my shirt

We loved the idea and results so much we are planning

what we want to do next.

Tree Removal

We had some BIG, pesky trees in our backyard....

we hated them

our neighbors hated them

they needed to come down!

See them in the background

Devin's friend Kyle and our neighbor Steve

came over and spent most of the day

cutting, chopping, loading, un-loading

those pesky trees

looks fun, right!

We had over 4,000 lbs of tree

Once the trees were gone, even

peskier stumps were still there

so.......

Devin brought his truck into the backyard

and pulled those suckers out!

Now..... thats fun!

Even Kaylie helped with her car

1st Birthday
