a walk through the 'hood

on saturday, we decided to take a walk down the street to our mall....arrowhead mall, to look into getting a haircut for dane, and some seeds for my garden!

we got out the wagon, some snacks, and we were off!



suitin' up!


they took off without me!


enjoying some snacks while also enjoying the view


the mail spot where we now get our mail. it's just across the street and down half a block. doesn't seem too far away, but when you're used to getting mail straight into the garage, this has been somewhat of an adjustment. don't think it's permanent, but i can see why they might not want carriers walking through post-flood areas that haven't really been cleaned up!


looking back down our street. the fema trailer on the right is right across the street from us. they were really getting after some projects on this day! yahoo!!!


about a block down the street.....some fresh guttage.


interesting that it's been almost a year and some of this is JUST coming out to the curb!


a house across from leech park that someone must have bought and is really making some changes to!


a formerly-fenced in backyard. these people used to have an 8-foot fence right up to this lift station.


looking back towards leech park....it's just around the bend to the left


fema trailer!


nasty fence that had a deck laying across it up until just this past week!


pre-haircut. got last minute jitters and tried to back out.


enjoying a little flood book while waiting for dane


digging into what we later realized was his first sucker. yes, we are horribly mean and don't let the boys have candy or almost any sweets. he actually licked the entire thing down to the stick. didn't put it in his mouth and suck on it like the rest of us do. but hey, if he's never experienced it, i guess what did he know?!


stopped at leech park on the walk home for a few trips down the slide!


running over to slide down to dad!


climbing to the top of the swirly slide funspot!


brody made a few trips down, but


wasn't very sure of it!


peekaboo!!!
