we love our neighbors!

what makes our neighborhood the best in the world?  besides the amazing mountains in our backyard...our neighbors!  these people in that photo right there are the very best.

oh, and the slip 'n' slide was extreme!  the park by our house has a very large hill (that's 3 large billboard signs you see as our slip 'n' slide).  bbq of the summer?  i'd say so!

this place made me want a green thumb. so i pretended i did, bought a bunch of plants, and planted a couple of areas of front yard. and guess what? so far, all the plants i planted are flourishing. score!

my "let's pretty up our front yard" mentality rubbed off on gordon. he decided what he wanted to do for the little island in our front yard. he did an amazing job with the border! we admired our work with an izzy soda on the front porch.
