Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve sat down and updated the good ol’ blog. Here’s a bit of what we’ve been up to the last few weeks.
*Mark and I have been diving in head first into the world of gardening. We talk about this garden more than just about anything. We’ve built 8 garden boxes that are 5 X 10 feet and they are almost all ready for veggies. If the rain and wind would stop, we could actually get the last of the dirt shoveled into them.
*We planted seeds inside to get a head start on our garden. My entire kitchen table is now completely covered in vegetable starts. Maybe we went a bit overboard. I am so excited to get them all planted soon. Most of the time we eat at the bar anyways, but I miss my table.
*My niece and nephew had a sleepover here the other weekend. We made a fort, colored, danced, went on a walk, watched a movie, and made cookies. We all had a blast. Even if they were both up by 6:00 am.
*Our yard now has sprinklers and hopefully we will hydro-seed the grass next week. My fingers are totally crossed….I’m ready for some green!
*I’ve discovered that if I don’t go to Zumba for almost two weeks and then go back, it really hurts. Note to self…..don’t ever do that again.
*I made strawberry freezer jam for the first time ever. Holy cow, is it ever easy…and totally delicious.
* I have been asked to go to Girl’s Camp this year. I will be working with 4 other women and we are in charge of all the 1st year girls. Man, oh man….5 days surrounded by about 30 twelve year old girls…it’s gonna be entertaining.
*Between work and our projects at home, life has been keeping both of us busy. I don’t know about you, but I am beyond ready for this three day weekend!
