So I have been wanting some rocks in the flower bed that is in the middle of my front yard for quite some time now. Over the weekend, Gary and Cas dug up a couple of bushes that were in the flower bed and also ripped out the light pole (it hadn't worked for years). Then they moved in some rocks that a friend of ours found for us. Here are some pictures.

The wire is from the light pole.





Here are the rocks. Three pretty big ones.
Eventually, they will be made into a fountain.


I just love the way they look.

Now I have to decide what to plant and where to put the fountain.

Instead of taking a family vacation this year, we decided to have a "stay-cation". Cameron is the only one of the boys who has ever been to Lagoon so we decided to take all the boys and go have a wonderful day. We arrived shortly after they opened at 11 a.m. and we didn't leave until right before they closed at 10 p.m. We had a ton of fun and even went to Lagoon-A-Beach.
Here are some pictures of all the fun things we did.

Carter and Cohen went on a bunch of rides together. They had a lot of fun together.

Mom and Cohen on the Dragonfly ride. If those swings would have gone around one more time, mom would have made a big mess on the ground. Just a little bit nauseous.

I personally think they are both too young to drive, but you can decide for yourself.

First, they tried to fly an airplane...

Then they moved onto helicopters.

Dad, Cohen (next to dad and not viewable on any picture), and Carter all rode the roller coaster together. This was the smallest coaster Carter rode. He went on the Jet Star, The Bat, and the white roller coaster with mom.

Cameron and Cohen on the mini Rocket. Cohen loved it!

Dad rode the merry-go-round with the boys. It makes the mom sick to her stomach just to watch it go around and around and around.
