...downtime in the backyard...

Some comfortably cool "June gloom" mornings have resulted in some pleasantly warm June afternoons.  Time well spent in the "work in progress" backyard.
Now, doesn't that look inviting?  Look, a seat saved just for you!


Of course, you may run into this fuzzy friend in the backyard.  Go ahead, throw a ball.  Fun for both of you!


The "hula girl" is blooming as big as plates and covering the whole bush in sunny yellow.  As the evening approaches, the smell of jasmine adds just the right amount of sweetness to the gentle ocean breezes blowing in the next morning's cloud cover.  

Late spring in the backyard...enjoy!

Hey Gene-the swing turned out great! That looks like a great little nook in the backyard!

Is that Grandma's swing? That corner in your backyard looks like a great place to sit and throw a ball to Olive. Can't wait to see what else you do. Are you guys going to lhhs to watch fireworks? We'll definitely miss that this year.

Gene has been working on that corner, but Olive has been eating the marble and concrete he put down under the swing. Her naughtiness knows no bounds.

Lauren - Not sure if we are going to LHHS. Rachel is working that night. We may go to Soak City. We'll miss you guys no matter what!
