camps, cribs & charlie

So we just got back from spending two weeks at NeSoDak with our confirmation kids. We have 20 the first week and the weather was super rainy and cold. Then we had 13 the next week and the weather was beautiful! Surprisingly, the attached picuture is from the one nice afternoon we had during week 1!

Now we are back home and settling in again. Back to more work on the lawn (well for Lando anyway). I can help with seeding the lawn, but that's about it. As the belly gets bigger, i find that i'm slowing down a bit.



It's nice to be home though. Here is a shot of the sunsets that we see every night out our dining room doors.
I love the wide open spaces and we are enjoying every bit of it because as Sioux Falls continues to grow, Harrisburg will continue to develop and this view will soon likely be filled with new homes. Sad but true.

So when we got back, Lando decided that Charlie needed a bath and a trim. The bath i agreed with (she smells like a nice citrus dog now); however the trim has taken our cute-old-man-like looking dog and turned her into something i don't recognize.
As he tried to even out his work the beard got shorter and shorter until there was nothing left! Oh well, hopefully it will grow back.

6 weeks till BABY!
