"Mow" it Over


JD used the riding mower to do the lawn yesterday (I helped). He did a great job. Maybe in the future he will be able to do it completely by himself. All of the homes in our neighborhood have HUGE lawns, this could potentially be a money maker for him. Who knows?

Inner Peace






"Take from me anything. Material possessions are worthless, just leave me with inner peace."

"When the world threatens to flood my barricades, I run to my centre, my calm, my bliss."

Lord, grant me the ability to forgive, that I might be free from pain and gain inner peace.

Link, King of the Lawn


So I mowed the lawn for the first time since we moved to our current home. I had never driven a riding mower before, it was pretty fun. The yard is HUGE (thus, the riding mower). The dogs love the big yard. Jazz hunts birds, gophers and who knows what else. All we know is he is teaching Link the art of the kill. Who would have thought?


When the yard was done we let the dogs back outside. Link stayed in the same place and didn't move for about an hour. He must have been soaking up the glory of his freshly cut lawn. For just a moment, he looked somewhat intelligent. John snapped a picture on his phone. It is Link, King of the Lawn.

Scooter Time


Finally the weather is good enough to get the scooter out. The Zuma is a lot of fun. Even the dogs like going for rides!

Trip to JAPAN!







We loved our trip to Japan! It was wonderful to experience the culture. We already miss it and we look forward to going there again. Disneyland Tokoyo was one of our favorite places. JD loved the Pokemon Center. Thanks for the trip!
