Doin' some grass

So our HOA sent us a letter saying we better get our butts into gear and get the weeds out and some landscaping in. So, this last Saturday Harrison and I laid a yard full of sod. I have done this more than once in my young life and all of my sod laying skills came back to me quite quickly. This is a photo of what our lawn looks like now (don't worry... I swept the sidewalks and the driveway).

By the way... if you want a heck of a workout... please lay some sod. It is 2 days later and I can still hardly move my body. The grass looks great and we now have the prettiest yard on the block.

Our First Vegas Show


So, I was the 29th caller one evening on my way home from work and I won tickets to Jersey Boys. We had heard that the show was good, so I thought I would try and win tickets. Show tickets usually run more than $100 per seat... so I was VERY excited when I found out I was the winner. We saw the show this last Saturday night. They took us through the "VIP" entrance and we ended up sitting in the 7th row! The seats were awesome!

The show is about Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. It was super good (if you didn't pay attention to all the F-Bombs). The singing was AMAZING! Harrison told me that he thought some of the songs were a recording because they were singing so well (but we both knew that there was no recording... it was all live).

A MUST SEE for folks who want to see a good show. There is some language, as I mentioned earlier, but if you aren't afraid of that... go see it if you have some extra dough in your pocket.
