Five Year Old

S turned 5 this week. He has been a fun little dog.

 

Backyard

JP has been hard at work on the yard this year. It's so pretty once everything comes back to life!

 

Live Music on the Lake

One of the things we love about summer is the live music across the lake at the bandshell. Monday, Wed., Friday, Sat. & Sunday there are bands of all kinds playing.

The bandshell looked a little rough three years ago when we moved here. It's in really bad shape now, but it's under construction. The roofs are supposed to be replaced later this year. 

 

Gerten's

We are in the market for some additional tall/skinny evergreen trees for the backyard. When we had the landscaping done, they charged us $800 for the little 4-footer. We need something more affordable. Everyone told us to check out Gerten's, so we did.

WOW! What a place! JP was so overwhelmed she didn't buy a thing. The property stretches over half a mile and it took us an hour to walk it.

Edina Art Fair

CP came over and we all walked down to the Edina Art Fair. We got there as it was opening, and it was already abuzz with throngs of people. CP picked up a really cool Minnesota Wild logo made out of license plates. Before the walk home, we cooled off at Red Cow.
