First day of school for our valley kids! Our district is on a year-round schedule, and this begins their fall quarter. The school buses came along right on time this morning -- we're at a corner where there's a bus stop. Sigh ... I guess summer is waning already.**********
Tony's off and running on a new home improvement project: a nice brick walkway from the front porch around to the side yard. This involves digging a trench all the way along (four feet wide by 40 feet long), two tons of sand dumped in the driveway, and 600+ bricks. Should keep him out of trouble for a while!**********
I got a fun package in the mail today! These goodies are from Nann, a Yahoo friend. Three sets of Christmas squares and 150 plaid charms -- wowee!!!! I can't wait to pull out my Nickel Quilts books and get going on those plaids :)

Post more photos of your yard work...it looks like its going to be beautiful! cheers!
Summer is going way too fast, feels as if Christmas will be next week.
I too will be looking forward to updates on the yard work. So nice to watch someone else do the work...hehehe
Blessings,

Two tons of sand?! This calls for a shovel and pail... you could make one huge sandcastle! Then maybe summer wouldn't feel all but over.
I feel bad for the kids returning to school-now that I don't have any to send back-hehe.
I love brick paths, I made a little patio area myself a few years ago. I hope we'll see more pictures of the progress.
Summer has been passing by quickly but we have not had much summer weather here on the coast--very cool and cloudy. School starts in about three weeks I think--they printed the bus schedule in the paper last week.
Love the plaid charms! What a lucky lady.
You know, those xmas squares look like some my friend Nann had.... Does Nann live in IL?
