wanna buy a house?

The for sale sign will go up tomorrow morning. We have loved this
house, but will be happy to be together as a family in Chicago. If
you know anyone who is in the market in the Raleigh area, this is a
great value and will be presented well below tax value! We are
_motivated!_

the sunglasses, the frog, and the dinosaur

Be still my heart, little man. Could you be any cuter ? And Li'l
miss sunshine. You in those boy glasses. Too cute. Ernie was outside
to catch a look at the tree frog hanging out on the front of the house
- and our winter rye has come in so green that I couldn't resist. Me,
I know, I could not resist taking pictures of my little frog-loving
little love bug.

Dru catches a fish!! :)

Dru catches a fish! He really likes the plaid/tie dye combination.

A few September shots

The Brothers Sanchez boogying down. Cotton-Eye Joe, perhaps ?













Ernie, precious Ernie.












And thus it begins. She loves her "princess" a ballerina from Aunt Brigid.














Who, ME? Princess ?

a little stroll down memory lane

I was sitting at my desktop looking through some old pictures of Dru -
none of them on the blog - and thought I'd share. Hope you enjoy them
as much as I do!

mulch!

Gardenia (love when they bloom!!), adult praying mantis, big pile o'
mulch, and our maple trees with the wall Gene built and the Vinca
Majors, blooming away with their new mulch. Wish you had
smell-o-vision -the tea olive is blooming like mad this year, and its
perfume is intoxicating!

dinner?

Ernie and Gene proud of their catch.

Justin's birthday

We always have such fun at Ms. Vann's house. xoxox
