CoNgRaTuLaTiOnS!!!

Two days ago Dave and Marie (Benton's Dad and Step-mom) won the Most Beautiful Yard Award for Sunset City! We are so excited for them, they deserve the award more than anybody I know. Marie works in her yard hours almost daily, I don't know anybody who takes such pride in their yard work. I love going over to their house and sitting at their table in their backyard because it is so gorgeous. For years they worked on redoing their yard and it has certainly paid off! I wish I was more like them with loving yard work, I just don't have the knack for it....I didn't plant one flower this year, terrible I know! So last night I drove over while Benton was at school to see their sign and congratulate them on their accomplishment! Here are some pics...

Thats great! Marie is like superwoman (with her amazing salsa making abilites, and now 1st place for her yard!) I wish I had an interest in gardening too- but I am too creeped out by bugs to enjoy it :)

I live in Sunset and know what a big deal and honor that is here. How exciting for them! I'll have to take a drive so I can see their lovely yard. Tell them congrats for me please, Melissa!
