Playing in the fountain



So my friend Lydia came into town this weekend for her 5 year reunion...and while she was here we decided to celebrate her return in a truly Smith way, by jumping in the fountain in the science quad. Here is the video of this momentous occasion. Click Here!

Morning Glories and other Ammenities!



So I have been on an insane morning glory planting binge! Well, I had a lot of seedlings that needed to be transplanted...so transplant I did! Above you can see that I painted the right side planter...so now we look a little more balanced. But I have also added a cedar trim to seperate our new morning glories from the "lawn" Ok, we know the lawn is sad...but it is seeded we swear!
So one day it will be lush and green! And the morning glories primary function is to act as a decoy from the aweful porch. So instead of people saying...wow that is a unfortunate porch are you going to redo that..they will say something like...nice flowers...then we will know our plan is working! (twiddling fingers deviously)

Ok, this pic, in all its wonderful ambiguity, is actually newly planted morning glories at the base of our maple tree. We hope that they will grow up the tree. The second pic is the rock wall we are building around said tree...very English garden!



These next few pics are off the back yard, with the leaves actually growing! See we are no longer winter barren. And one is the hanging petunia basket on the back porch, of which I have 2.




New Truck Old Truck



So, most of you know....Dave got a new truck. This is a joyous event! and a sad one. He had to say goodbye to his old baby duelly! This pic was taken the day we traded it in...
But he traded it in for a beautiful Dodge Dakota!

In the Big Apple!


Ok..so these aren't the most exciting pictures, but the event was pretty thrilling. This is a pic of me underneath the ABC sign at the ABC building. We went there on friday for the launch of the new mentoring program...of which I am a mentee. I met my mentor, who is the head of the IT department, and think we will be doing some pretty amazing things. It was pretty cool just flashing my Disney badge and getting to walk straight into the ABC building...yeah...thats right....I've got connections! Well...my badge does at least!

Oh...and this sign was just funny!
