New cars and landscaping ...

So we got a new car.

Well, Ezra got a new car anyway. He really likes his present from Great-Grandma. If you push it backwards and let go it takes off on you, which Ezra doesn't seem to be too keen on. But you can't have everything, now can you?


The weather has been great, when it hasn't been raining. The yard is coming along. The orchid tree dropped all of its leaves (due to the "cold" and being transplanted recently), but has started some new growth. The palms look great, but they're not too picky.


The citrus trees look really good. The lemon tree is just covered with buds! A few have started blooming. Having fresh citrus will be really nice.


Shawn has spent a long time digging in the backyard for the sprinklers. The good news is that the digging has finished in the backyard for the most part. The bad news is that the backyard looks like a WWI battleground. The project will finish eventually.


We are excited for Emeline to soon be here. Both of us can hardly wait, for various reasons. Only a few more weeks...
