Last night the kids where asleep at 8:00 and we worked until 10:30 on our yard. I weeded our flower beds and even though it is kinda late in the season I think that I am going to drag the kids to the green house again today and get a few more plants. Speaking of flowers, Walter has been quite impressive with his plant lingo this summer! Lately if we are playing outside when Jeff comes home, Walter will show him the new flowers that opened up and say "look Daddy a Poppy" or "look a bleeding heart" and then he remembers the name later. When ever we see any kind of flower he has to know what it is. It is funny taking him to a green house because I end-up reading a lot more of those little inserts than ever before. A couple of days ago he was outside and he looked up in the sky and said "mama what the sky made of" I said "well I can tell you what the clouds are made of." Then I briefly told him about the water cycle. So yesterday we stepped outside and I said "wow is it ever humid out here." He said "what humid mean" I said it means "there is lots of water in the air that we can't see" then he said "mama the clouds are opening up?" What a cutie! Yesterday he bumped his head on something and he said "Mama I don't like the hurt." Rose E been lots of fun too of course. Lately when Walter is done eating she will say "the end" or "all done." Also, when we go somewhere with out Jeff and when we are pulling up to our driveway she will look out the window and excitedly "Hi Daddy, Hi Daddy." Yesterdays new word was sandal and speaking of sandal Walter got a pair of Thomas sandals and the first time we put them on he said "Mama why me not wearing socks" he has something with socks, they must be on at all times.

The Skies the limit!
Well we are making it official, at our home tour meeting it was suggested that we make a sign for our yards to let people know that we will be on the home tour and this is what Jeff came-up with. He made the letters a copper color and the background a green color with a green copper tarnished look. It turned out nice and we have seen people looking at it already.
