memorial stones
So I am starting to work on some memorial stones for the Gators we have lost in the last few weeks. I am pouring my own concrete stones for the individual guys... but wanted to make a "main" stone... mostly because I had planned on doing these sorts of pre-poured stones to begin with... but decided the ones I am going to make myself will look better. So rather than waste the one I had been painting on... this is the direction I took it in. However, no sooner had the paint dried and I was all done... but Caden got one of my paint pens and another marker and "helped" improve Mommy's work... oye. Have tried spot remover and finger nail polish remover to get the marks off... with no luck. So if you have any ideas on how to get paint OFF concrete, other than pressure washing it and starting all over again...
I don't know if I should just take some primer and paint over the whole thing, and start again... or just leave it as is and put it out at the company with all of Caden's wonderful additions. Advice would be appreciated...
*the first shot with only the cut-outs were before I made my stencils and started anything... it was just a layout to get ideas. the one with the yellow and black is unfinished... obviously... and pre-Caden. The ones with the red were completed... but with Caden's additions. I knew I should have gotten that stone out of the house sooner... just wasn't positive I was done with it yet!

dumper truck
I am afraid I missed the really funny scene of Caden making his dumper truck vroom around the deck. It was SO funny. I am sure we will see it again in the near future... as he is spending a lot of time digging in the dirt on the deck.
jungle or deck?
Hey so here are some fresh shots of the plants on the deck. I am going to have tomatoes and orange bell peppers coming out my ears! I already have more basil and oregano than I know what to do with! If anyone wants some, just let me know! Caden has finished off the kale... as you will see in some of the shots. The eggplant has sent out many blooms and as you can see, the squash is blooming now too. The zucchini and cucumber are getting ready to join them.
