Happy Birthday Ang!!!

Well it's Angela's 24 B-day today. I Just wanted to share a few pics of her from the past year.





I love you Ang!! Happy Birthday.

That's right....That's my wife!

So this week Angela had her end of the year assembly. They announced the teacher awards there. Can you guess who got crowned as the K-3 teacher of the year? That's right, Angela Haroldsen!! It was voted by the PTO and other parents. I'm so proud of her and so grateful that others see how dedicated she is as an educator. Below is the trophy she won and she also won a bonus for the award! Way to go Ang! Below the trophy are pictures of her doing the teacher musical number. It was an 80's theme. Ang is wearing an orange shirt and has a fro. Yes it is her real hair and yes I made fun of her. She is pretending to rock out on my Ukulele.

Our Backyard

These are some pictures of the progression of our yard. We have a small one that is just right for us right now. There are few problems however. The first was that we had a lawn but nothing to cut it with. To solve that problem we got an old push mower that is perfect for what we need. It was from one of Ang's coworkers (thanks Bob). Also we have a chain-link fence with a parking lot and dumpster right behind it. If you look past me in the fist picture you can see the nasty pile of garbage. In pics 3, 4, and 5 you can see that we planted some plants by the fence. These are honeysuckle and trumpet vine that we hope will give us a better view. The last pic is of me trying to tame our apricot tree. We didn't have the tools so I couldn't do much.




There hard to see but the plants are right along the fence line.
