When can we eat?!

Well... still quite a long time before I can start eating anything I am growing, but its coming along!

I have Green Onions and Dill that look like little sprouts... my lettuce wasn't growing so I replanted another variety yesterday. I think I have a few Cauliflower coming up but need to research online to make sure I am growing cauliflower and not weeds!

Who Woulda thought... Me? Gardening?

Our garden around the patio is looking great thanks to the many awesome donations by Mom of leafy green hostas and other flowers and plants that I have no clue what they are... I have put in a couple of my own ideas... dug out some ferns and planted them... and found an awesome burgundy Calla Lily that I just had to have! The poor palm tree is very sick, I don't think its going to revive... I would dig it out but it belongs to the landlord and the deck was built around it... maybe its time for a new center piece???

Golf practice has started!!

Brian and I finally got out to the driving range with Brian's Dad for some practice... we are going again next week! And we definitely need to finish our lessons!

A Bridge Walk

I kept wanting to check out the new bridge to see what it would be like for a new running location so I took a walk! It is really quite nice up there if you dont mind the noise and wind! (Can you believe the awesome pictures my cell phone takes?)

Gone Country... Farming??

Brian, Tag and I posed for the photo booth I was working at today for our picnic and auction! No, the pink plaid shirt isn't mine, but I thought it was fun!

A Candy Buffet!

I was recently at a work event where there was a candy buffet on a much larger scale... I couldn't help myself, it seemed like such a cool idea for the kids! We had a girls night tonight at my place with Mom, Julie, Cali and Lilah. We BBQed hot dogs for dinner and ate on the patio.

A Secret Garden

After our dinner, we all went for a walk with the dog. I brought everyone to a special little hidden garden and duck pond... Mom discovered a whole other side to it that I didn't know existed and it was really quite amazing. Lots of flowers, trails, ponds, fountains, etc.

A Special Task

I offered the girls a penny a piece to pick up all the beebes off the patio for Brian... Cali got 25 and Lilah got 45! Way to go girls!!

Me & Tag

Just for fun I took this picture of Me and Tag to txt to Brian... he is in Grand Prairie right now. I had to stuff a french fry in the earphone jack of my Cell phone to get Tag to look in the right direction! Haha... wish it could be easier than that!

Oh to be a dog...

Tag lounging on my lunch break.... I sat with him in the sun (although the sun is behind the clouds in this picture!)

Corn & Peas!!

To my delight, my veggies have started growing! Corn in the picture above and peas in the picture below... its been a couple weeks, I am surprised to see things get this far already!

Lilah's Pony Party

A few pictures from Lilah's birthday party at the Stables. The kids all had a fun time!

My Veggie Garden

I got my first 5 rows formed and planted today... lots of work and a blister later...

Nana with the Girls

Baking Sugar Cookies

While Julie and Mom napped (tired from helping take care of the kids while Aaron and Steph are in Mexico) Lilah, Cali and I baked and decorated Sugar Cookies! The girls did a great job!

Crime scene...

Oh, Tag... Looks like Elmo didn't make it!
