Flowers around the yard this year

Look at that Clematis! It is right near our air condition overflow. In years past we have kept a bucket there. This year it is all going to the clematis. Can you tell?!

The other two are the beginnings of my lily garden this year. One day the pink and white ones bloomed and the next day my yellow ones were blooming.

I just love when my flowers are beautiful!

A trip as a couple

The day after Harper turned one, Kasey had a business trip to Jacksonville, FL so I tagged along. It was a great time to get away and have some couple time, something we haven't had much of since Harper was born. We had not been on a trip since we went to Mexico back in Spring of 2008! We headed down on Wednesday to Jacksonville and Kasey had some work to do on Thursday. After he got done, we headed over to St. Augustine and toured the winery and then got on one of the sightseeing trollys. We headed back to Jacksonville that evening and had dinner at the beach. On Friday we decided to head over to Savannah, GA (one of my favorite places in the world). We got there at lunchtime, so we had lunch, walked around downtown and had a carriage ride sightseeing tour that evening. We had dinner at the Six Pence Pub and then went back downtown for a bit to listen to the local entertainment (a.k.a. homeless people making music) We stopped into Wet Willies several times for a daqueri. I'm really missing being able to walk around in the street with a drink in my hand. It was a great trip and we had a good time just us. We are headed to San Diego in July for a week(another business trip) and I hope to see the sights there to include Hollywood. I'm really trying to score tickets to see the taping of the Ellen show while we are there too. I check every day for June/July postings and they aren't up yet!

Fire Simulator

On April 22, the Fire College brought the fire simulator to the area, and area VFD's got their hand at a life like fire. I wasn't there, but Kasey said it was fun.

Changes again

I have decided to get rid of our travel blog that I created after our Mexico trip in 2008, since that is the only post I've had. Granted Kasey and I have not traveled since then, but I decided to just combine it with The Brown Klan. So if you go back to April 2008, you will see that post on our Mexico trip.

Don't forget our new blog on the kiddos http://worldofkendallandharper.blogspot.com/

I'll be adding some pictures to this blog later. Kasey and actually did get to get away for a couple of days last week,and I have a few pictures to add.
