Gardening!

I am so excited to finally get to have a garden this year! We are doing one with Ryan's parents. We finally had a chance to get out yesterday and get everything in the ground. We still have a few left, but we got most of it done. It feels good to be outside doing something productive.

This planting experience was much different from the ones I had growing up. My dad would have everything mapped out on paper. Each row and seed was spaced perfectly. Our garden here, well...lets just say it was done on a whim. We just kind of got a general idea and started planting. Then we found out Rick & Ryan had already planted some onions and radishes in the same spot as some of our cucumbers! Oops! We'll just see what pops up!



Maddi was a great helper. She loved playing in the dirt...even tried the taste out. What more could a kid want? We got home and she even had dirt in her diaper.

Myranda!!! Hey I saw your blog on Eric and Whitney's blog. I'm so happy to see that things are going so great for you! Your little girl is sooooooo cute and she is only a couple of months older than my little girl! Too bad we don't live closer to one another so that they could play. Wow, I think the last time I saw you you were going through the temple prior to getting married. I'd love to keep in touch. We have a blog as well, but it is set to private so if you want to look at it email me at jdawg_80@hotmail.com and I'll send you an invite. Take care!
