Mother's Day and more....

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!
I hope all the mommies out there that are reading this had a wonderful Mother's Day. I know I sure did. My day started out by getting up and going to breakfast at Cracker Barrel. Kasey was so worried it would be crowded. I kept telling him though if we went at 7:30 when Kendall got up, we would miss the crowd and we did. I got a couple of gifts too, but best of all Kasey and our friend Paul worked on moving my fish pond all day long. We wanted to move it to our front flower bed because it was in the backyard, and we were afraid with all of Kendall's running around, he would fall in and drown. I'm so glad we moved it though. It looks so good! They worked all day long too. The begun by pulling up all my azaleas that were in there. We used the 4-wheeler to get them out, so we got the roots and all. Then they had to drain the pond and get the 5 goldfish out. They then dug the pond out and cleaned it up. They began digging in the front next and then had to make sure everything was level and then fill in the old area. In the meantime we replanted the azaleas too. Some of them are next to the mailbox, some next to the shed and one big one where the pond used to be. Everything looks great. Thank you so much guys!

Since they were so busy, we failed to even get a picture of Kendall and I on Mother's Day, so we took a delayed picture this afternoon.





And here are some pictures of the pond in progress.
