when he's the responsible parent.
in other news... we have officially opened the house to visitors as it has met the red aunties' approval.
We had a real weekend back at home, and as Bill had worked all of last weekend this was really our first weekend back since out trip. needless to say a month with out attention left our yard with a tone of weeds high grass and over grown hedges. we conquered the worst of the first and all of the second and third. we still have a ton of weeds and grass seed needing planting. also our shrub in the back and up and died for the most part. Mimi is convinced that if we cut it way down it will come back... and since we have nothing let to lose on this one we might be finally buying a saw (and maybe I can slip in that axe bill won't buy for me.)
We had fun with the aunties at the art museum and a good dinner at wildfire, which has never disappointed us with guests. Brian and Christie had fun playing wii friday and sunday, and we have learned that there are two acceptable gifts for Christie, anything with an owl and anything scrapbook related.
This week is very odd what with the two on one off two on set up but what it means is that we cooked out yesterday and we will have cook out leftover for the next two days only to cook out again on the 4th.... maybe having the fourth on a Wednesday isn't so bad after all.
so since our deck project as been put into a holding pattern worse than at O'hare, we are probably going to move onto the new windows and bathroom projects. Neil, if you have any sink advice now's the time to give it.
