Another week complete...

Raegan chasing the chickens...trying to catch one.


persistence pays off... SHE got one!!! =)

.
.

no explanation for kierstens face in this one!!



this one is MUCH better!


.
.

here's ME..yes ME in a picture. i'm reading (yes reading) one of the best books ever!!
THIS IS IT!! we have fallen in love with this book . we turn to it for everything! this book has led to MORE stuff in the garden! soooo cool..




this is how the ol' garden is looking these days! its so beautiful, i love it! i need a chair or bench now, so i can sit out there. and the weather has not been too bad to do it either!

.
the new tomato plant.. (kevins not happy about that addition)

.

the 2 rectangle boxes are new seeds. one box is herbs and the other is flowers. the tiny oval can is new strawberry seeds.


.
the other new additions are marigolds (the flowers) and the 2 tiny bushes to the left of them are lavender. they are both for attracting pollinators and they smell and look awsome!
if we can just keep them alive.




.
.
after all this work ... we cooled down w/ some pudding.


i told Raegan to get a spoon and this was her choice. a freakin' BEATER!! made a lovely mess.
.
Brendon opted for the FACE utensil and ended up w/ a lovely mustache-- along w/ it on his head & nose. nice son!
