The Fralick Family

What a beautiful day! Bill was off so he went fishing today....he didn't catch anything, but enjoyed it nonetheless. I had to work till noon and after I got off Bill and I did a little bit of stuff outside. I picked up some sticks and put some decor back out on the front porch that I had taken down for winter. We talked a little about what to do in the yard/driveway. We plan to cut a tree down, get some gravel for the drive, disk up the yard and plant some new grass seed, put up a privacy fence, do a little landscaping with timbers and rock around the house....whew! And I'm more than sure we'll get it alllll done this spring....yeah right. Hopefully, but yeah right!

One of the first things I am doing is sending a letter and some pictures to our city codes guy....or whoever. The building that sits dangerously close to our garage is falling in. Every time the wind blows there are pieces of it's roof on our back deck and yard. The bricks are falling....it's just not safe. Plus, some of it sits on our property and I want to build previously said fence! Bill climbed on the roof of our garage today to get some pics of the top of this building....here is one of them:



Looks great huh?! Yeah, that's a huge hole on the left that just goes inside the building!

We went by Raymond's house last night to check on progress. He's coming along great! Just a little longer and they'll be moving in. Here is Grace next to a board we have all signed:



Dad, Raymond, and Bill checking out the work done in the bedroom:



And since it was a beautiful day, as soon as Grace got home from school, she stayed outside. She rode her bike, played basketball, got out her rock collection so they could "get some sun".....really. She went in to get something and came out being sneaky wearing shorts. Oh well, it was almost 70, right?! Here she is hanging in our dogwood tree in the back:



And tomorrow's supposed to be even better! I can't wait. We are signing her up for TBall in the morning, she's excited. Anyway, I'm going to watch TV....have a good night!!
