I love my house.<br \/>\n    The inside is comfortable and roomy enough for my little family<br \/>\n    and the outside is just right. The lawn is a bit of a jungle<br \/>\n    (it&#8217;s hard to find time for mowing, especially when the boy is<br \/>\n    afraid of the loud noise), but that&#8217;s ok. It&#8217;s soft and good to<br \/>\n    run around in. My garden is growing like mad and my pea plants<br \/>\n    are out of control. Lex eats peas on a daily basis and is<br \/>\n    eagerly awaiting the green beans and tomatoes. We have lots of<br \/>\n    toys and the kids are easily entertained outdoors, and lunch<br \/>\n    always tastes better on the picnic table. Today we took a walk<br \/>\n    to the post office, and the playground to meet some friends,<br \/>\n    then walked up to Alan&#8217;s office to pick him up after work. Now<br \/>\n    the kids are sleeping in their comfortably air conditioned room<br \/>\n    and Alan and I are enjoying all the comforts of home. Life is<br \/>\n    good and I love my house! :)<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a onblur=\"try\n    {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SGL8PkVnVnI\/AAAAAAAADoU\/pUXU7eiy84o\/s1600-h\/IMG_2315.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align:\n    center; cursor: pointer;\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SGL8PkVnVnI\/AAAAAAAADoU\/pUXU7eiy84o\/s400\/IMG_2315.JPG\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216008662831027826\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">My out<br \/>\n    of control peas!

Before you laugh, let me explain. It&#8217;s a<br \/>\n    retractable line and has a little hook thing to keep it tight.<br \/>\n    About 3\/4 of the way done I put a pair of jeans on there and<br \/>\n    the hook came undone and the line dropped. Ahhh! So I had to<br \/>\n    hold it up with one hand and reattach\/adjust the hook with the<br \/>\n    other, which resulted in a very low line :) We put it up mostly<br \/>\n    for diapers, but I couldn&#8217;t resist hanging out this load on the<br \/>\n    first sunny day in weeks. It was mid-80s and sunny with a<br \/>\n    slight breeze. The clothes dried in no time!! Lex loved it and<br \/>\n    happily handed me clothes pins. I, of course, had to stop him<br \/>\n    from running back and forth under the (low hanging) wet<br \/>\n    clothes. A good time was had by all :)<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:\n    center;\"><a onblur=\"try\n    {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SGL8R3Z3IoI\/AAAAAAAADok\/Z6CjkjMAqy0\/s1600-h\/IMG_2321.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align:\n    center; cursor: pointer;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SGL8R3Z3IoI\/AAAAAAAADok\/Z6CjkjMAqy0\/s400\/IMG_2321.JPG\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216008702308852354\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Cool<br \/>\n    dude decided to wear shades instead of a hat today so &#8220;my eyes<br \/>\n    don&#8217;t get sunburned.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e)\n    {}\" href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SGL8Sumno1I\/AAAAAAAADos\/XYDywgTuVOc\/s1600-h\/IMG_2328.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align:\n    center; cursor: pointer;\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_xGc8ytldDks\/SGL8Sumno1I\/AAAAAAAADos\/XYDywgTuVOc\/s400\/IMG_2328.JPG\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216008717126312786\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Eve was<br \/>\n    fascinated with these flowers in the neighbors garden.
