This past weekend was spent on the outside of the house. Jep bought a brand new lawn mower and mowed our sod for the very first time. It was exciting! And, the grass looks great now! We also went to Home Depot and Lowe's and bought some flowers. I am trying to soak up all the information I can about gardening and landscaping now that I have a backyard to try my hand at it. It turns out that gardening takes some planning and preparation- you can't just dig a hole, plant some seeds, and wait for it to grow! Hahah-who would have thought?! I did however, plant some hydrangas on the side of the house and am hoping for the best! Eventually, I'd like to start a garden but I still need to do some more research first.

Jep recently switched units within the National Guard. He is now a Platoon Leader with the 186th Engineers in Dothan, AL and he found out his unit is the #1 unit to be called for storm/hurricane relief. Two weekends ago, I went down to Dothan for "Family Day." Jep was volunteered to be a participant in the "dunk tank." It was hilarious!
