Avoiding Homework

Well, Josh is sleeping, Holly is out running errands and I have three more cases that I'm supposed to read for class tomorrow. Realizing that I still have some time to procrastinate, I have decided to take my first leap into the blogosphere. We'll see how this goes. All I know is that I have some pictures I want to post and I'm hoping somewhere on this computer screen in front of me I will be able to see some kind of link that lets me accomplish my goal. I'm going to bet it is the microscopic icon with what appears to be a picture of some far off mountain panorama.

Ah, there I am. How about that! I have blogged! You might wonder where I am standing in that picture. Well, for the past few months I have been working on finishing our backyard. You see, that's the beauty of living in Phoenix; I can work outside on our backyard in the winter. I have to give credit where credit is due, I had a wonderful group of cheap labor to help bring the rocks in on the last day of work. Insert cheap labor here:

Here are a few pictures of what everything looks like now that we have all the plants in and our patio furniture is all assembled.


That is Josh's club house along the side wall. He loves running across the bridges to play in it.


We have already had two barbecues using our new grill. For those of you who want to come visit, I'd be happy to cook something tasty up for you as well.



FUN WITH NANA AND PAPA

Along with working on our yard, we've had been able to spend some time with family. Last weekend, Holly's parents came down to spend a few days with us. Josh got to spend some quality time with Nanna and Papa while Holly and I got to go on a much needed late Valentine's Day date to Three Tomatoes and a Mozzarella, our favorite Phoenician pizza joint.




VISIT FROM GiGi AND G.G.PA

We also had GiGi and G.G.Pa Colton come to town this past week and got to spend some time with them.







Now for what everyone has been waiting to see... pictures of Josh. As my Grandpa Colton always says, even a papa hippopotamus thinks his babies are beautiful. Since Holly and I sure think we have a cute little boy and since this blog is all about us, I'm going to take up however much space I want with pictures of Josh!





Josh's cousin Jacob let Josh take a ride on his motorcycle and Josh loved it!












Here's Josh with his Diamondback's helmet playing with my old pair lederhosen.

It's March in Arizona and that means Spring Training! Josh loves wearing his D-backs helmet that we got at one of the games last year.
