Who ever said weekends are for resting? It seems that in our family, the weekends are the busiest time of all. This weekend was the first weekend that we had any time whatsoever to do nothing and what do we do? Yard work! We worked so hard on our back yard, de-thatching, pulling weeds, pulling up yucky plants that we've wanted to get rid of for a long time, re-seeding, mulching and planting new flowers and shrubs. Wow! We got a lot of work done, now we just need to head to the front yard....I guess that's for another free weekend!
I Will say however, after we got everything done, cleaned up and sprayed off, the yard looked really good and ready for summer back yard BBQ's and entertaining! For our first treat, Bob and Xander picked up grouper and tilapia from the store and we had a fantastic grilled dinner out in our cleaned up back yard! It was not only delicious but it was extremely relaxing. It was the best part of our day!
Sunday after church we took the VW bus and drove to Scott and Vida's house. They used to be our neighbors when we lived in Mission Viejo. We don't get to see them as often as we'd like too so it was nice to be able to spend the afternoon with them. The kids immediately dove into the pool as soon as we got there. They have a great pool with waterfalls, a slide and a jacuzzi so the kids were in heaven. Of course when daddy gets in, everything changes and he becomes their personal water toy. Here are a few pictures of them having a blast!

This of course, is called the "Flying Hannah".
If you have never tried it, you should ~ it provides hours of fun!
Bob and Xander getting set for Xander to do his famous backward "McFlip". He has gotten pretty good at doing backflips off his daddy's hands.
Christian right after he and daddy took the plunge down the slide. He was scared at first but the right after he and daddy jumped off the waterfall. After that he decided he had enough and was done with all that deep water nonsense, he was ready for the jacuzzi again.
A boy after my own heart!
Here are Vida and Scott's 2 adorable kids, Ryan and Kiele (pronounced Ky-Lee). Our kids were best friends with them when we all lived in the same "hood!
It was a great day ending as always at their house with delicious home-made tacos and the works!
