As our vacation is almost here, we thought we would share some pictures of what we have been up to lately. This past weekend Jim's parents came to visit on Saturday for awhile, and of course Jim won the card game :-). Later that night we decided to go check out Granny's Pantry in Battle Lake with Jenny's parents. If you have never been there we would recommend it to anybody. It's an old fashioned ice cream, candy and fudge shop. The ice cream was top notch!! After that we went to Inspiration Peak and took in some fireworks for Pickle Fest in Hewitt.
The other project that has been keeping us busy all summer long is the landscaping around the house. With the help of Jenny's dad, we think that we are pretty much done now for this year unless landscaping block goes on a huge sale. In the pictures below you can see some of the new landscaping and the old. We now have a mixture of hydrangeas, peonies, azaleas, holly and much more all around the house. Enjoy what is left (or maybe yet to come) of summer. Hopefully, we will have some nice pictures from Yellowstone in two weeks!!
