Secret shots by Dallas

 I'm sure our neighbors are very nice people once you get to know them. I'm sorry new(er) neighbors, we just miss the old ones. Our old ones would ride their riding lawnmower around, smoking a cigar and be on dandelion control. You, for whatever reason, have started a dandelion farm in your front yard, causing millions of the little bugers to dominate ours. Also, you only mow your lawn once every month. It only takes you 4 hours to complete this daunting task. For example, you feel it necessary to burn a crap-ton of coal to power your under powered electric lawn mower that frankly sounds like a misquote.  It also takes you 4 different rounds with your weenie mower because it's not able to cut over 1" of grass at a time. Feel free to borrow ours if need be, but we really do like watching you move the cord out of the way every minute or so.  Best of luck with that half acre lot!

Superfine Sunday

Today was the colfax half followed by 6 hrs of yardwork. Since becoming a runner once again, I'm liking my goals of "finishing". Absolutely no pressure on myself to do well, just finish. So to do a taper run (for steamboat full in 2 weeks) with other people was really great. Although at the end i couldn't help myself from chasing down amazon woman at the finish.

Onto the afternoon. D and I did 6 hrs of yardwork including, but not limited to: 2 trips to lowes, one trip to sonic happy hour, plant veggies, begin building another raised box, move more of the original 5 tons of rock (which still lies in the driveway and I'm sure our neighbors wonder if it will ever go away), mow yard, etc. Take in mind the picture is still a work in progress, but 2 mo ago this was all mud.

Onto herding 12 4 y/o children at Sunday school.

Toilet paper king

Dear fritz,

You are a BAD KITTY! There are plenty of other toy to play with in our house. No...... You go to the toilet and play with brand new rolls of tp. Nothing is more thrilling than picking up small pieces of tp all over the floor when we get home from work. And if that wasnt enough, you also like to swat at toilet paper that is on its way to being used.

Please quit this habit before we feed you to the dogs. And we mean that in the nicest way possible.

Love,

Andi and Dallas

Cat vs dog

At the pound they said this vicious bulldog would eat cats. Turns out she's a softie.

Apologies to Beezer

Dear Beezer,

I apologize to you as I always made fun of you for buttering every single bite of bread with butter. According to my friend Ben, who is in culinary school, this is the proper way to eat bread.

Love,
Andi
