Our Weekend

Another Crazy Busy Weekend!

Friday we spent ALL DAY

doing projects around the house.

ALL DAY!  We got started right

after we dropped the boys off at

school and didn't stop and head

to bed until WELL after 1 am.

It was a very long day!

Productive. But long.

 

I picked up this little arrangement

for a sweet little old couple down

the street.  He walks their dog twice

a day around our block like clock work.

He told us Friday that after 14 years

he got cancer and they had to put

him down.  His eyes were full of

tears when he was telling us.  It was

sooooo heartbreaking!  Hopefully this

brightened their day.

We got dirt!

Lots and Lots of dirt!



Time to fill these new container

gardens my snookem made for

me.  It took lots of wheelbarrow

fulls!  Luckily we have big strong boys.

 

Rylee helped me with the planting.

When Cody finished his part he got

straight to playing.  I big pickup full

of nice new fresh dirt it this boys

dream come true!

During the planting of my old box

I found a TON of buried Hot Wheel

cars and dirt bikes.  Wonder who

that could have been from?!?

 

And DONE!

12 tomato plants

8 pepper plants

radish and cabbage seeds

and lots of flowers from seed

Fingers are crossed now!

Crossed that we don't get a late

freeze.  Crossed that this magical

dirt really is good dirt.  Crossed that

we picked good plants and not duds.

Crossed that all of our seeds will

sprout and grow big and strong.

Take your pick ~ lots of things to

cross your fingers about!

More boys playing in the dirt.

Saturday we celebrated Kade's 14th

Birthday!  14!!!  I can not believe that!

We kept it simple and just had hotdogs

with the family at home.

He requested coconut cake.

It's his favorite.

(even though we just had it for Easter)

We like weenie dog girls around here.

At his moms house he has a little

chihuahua though.  I always give him

a hard time about weenie girls being

better than chihuahuas.

I think he had a pretty great day!

 

 

After a crazy busy weekend we made

Sunday a movie day.  It was just what we needed!
