Mom's Day

Saturday mom and I planted flowers. On Mother's day Paul and I had brunch with his family and celebrated Stan's birthday with a famous Mrs. Sawaya cake! After that we went to Grandma Richards' and visited with the fam. The tulips were a suprise from Paul. They were beautiful!

Garage Sale Time!

Laurie and I are organizing a neighborhood garage sale. We passed flyers out to all the homes in the neighborhood the other night. With the move to the new house, and all the wedding stuff we are busting at the seams lately in all all closets. I trapped Laurie in one of the spare bedrooms and had her go through all of her storage boxes. We managed to get a lot of things set aside for the garage sale.

Golf

Laurie and I went golfing this morning. Well as you can see one of us did anyways.

We're not Amish but we're building a barn anyway.

Last weekend Laurie and I started building a small storage barn in the back yard. It will be something small but still big enough to hold all the loose garden tools and the lawnmower that are taking up space in the garage.

Honeymoon

Laurie and I had a great wedding and can't thank everyone enough for being a part of it. After everything was said and done, we flew out of Midway to Miami for our cruise to the Caribbean. The weather was great and all the travel plans went off without a hitch. Here are a few pictures from our trip.

Shower

This weekend Laurie, Buddy and I went home for the Richards wedding shower. We had a great time and got some really good gifts. It was nice to see everyone and can't wait for the wedding.

SNOW!!!!

Laurie and I survived our first big snow storm in our new house. A couple of weeks ago Westfield got hit by 16 inches of snow. We both got a couple days off of work because the roads were so bad. Not to mention Laurie's beetle wouldn't even make it out of our drive way let alone get all the way to work. Buddy had a field day playing in the snow. It was taller that he was in most spots.

What a rough life we lead!

Last weekend Paul and Matt Richards and I drove down to Florida for a few day to play golf. We left really early on Thursday night and drove straight through to Pensacola Florida. We played 36 on Friday and another 36 on Saturday. The weather was amazing and we all had a pretty great time. We managed to see a couple gators on one of the courses we played. The one in the picture was a little irritable and was chasing golf carts that passed by him.
