Slumber parties.....

On Saturday, Layne had her birthday slumber party planned.  Since we moved to Colorado, she hadn't had a birthday party with friends.....it was about time.  She helped me clean and get everything ready, she is a great help.  Her friend, Kristen, came over a bit early and helped.....and jumped.



They were in charge of the cupcakes.



Some were a little bigger than the others.




Once everyone arrived, they all hung out downstairs and were no trouble at all.  They played Wii games and watched movies....they were great.  They just didn't eat enough food, or I always get too much.




Also on Saturday, Heath did work in the yard.  He has dug out the steps that will be in the center of the retaining wall.  Now we just need to buy the bricks.

I did plant all my Iowa hostas and thought I took a photo, but I can't find it.  Will just have to take another.




Sunday morning, in usual Heath fashion, he took Sully down to wake the girls.




Heath setting the table for breakfast and 7 girls.



All the girls at breakfast.




Here is just an updated photo of the garden.  Everything is getting bigger and we have only lost one plant.  This would be from the dogs...not sure which one.




Sunday morning, after all the girls left, we decided to work on the side yard.  We are doing these other projects to get rid of rocks in the back, I guess.  I also had lilies from Iowa to plant.




The side yard on Sunday evening after all our hard work.  Still have some rocks to move in the back left corner.  I think I am going to go out after this and work on that!!




Pedro napping on the tramp...I think he likes it because it is warm.




 
It was a great weekend and also very productive. I just wish I could figure out why the weekend goes so fast...I need them to last longer.
