June is here... shew, it is going to be busy!

So the work around the pool has begun and this is our second phase (Phase I was getting pool cover off and the water clear and Tod is working on that one).. we got quite a lot of planting done today.. we still haven't found the small tropical tree we want yet and we are going to need to do something to the other side of the path. We have most in pots because the soil is very sandy and they can be moved easily...

look at the goofy dog in the background :-).. Rudy fell in today, too!

I plan to take my camera to all the baseball games this week and get some pictures. We have another player's dad that takes exceptional pictures with a camera that makes mine look like some type of toddler's toy camera. I do want to post some pictures, though, so I will drag out my little digital camera and hopefully have some decent photos to post.... while it hasn't been the best season ever, it is a great group of boys and Tod has really enjoyed getting to know them. He has had one disagreement with another coach and it was over sportsmanship and inappropriate taunting of the pitcher.. not over umpire calls or if we win/loose... Tod cannot stand by while players are allowed to act disrespectful to the game or other players. He considers baseball a gentleman's sport and teaching the boys how to behave as a gentlemen while being competitive is very high on his agenda. While it was an uncomfortable moment, it was a necessary moment and we are all proud of him for standing up for his team and what he believes to be right.

I came home Saturday and this is what was in my driveway... handsome husband mowing the lawn..

Look at those big muscles.. pulled that loaded trailer up the hill by himself.. my hero!

We were driving home and a family of peacocks was running beside us... Lounge Tod...
