GARDEN

I got to help plant the vegetable garden this evening - tomatoes, peppers, green/yellow beans, leaf lettuce, onions, squash, PUMPKINS, pickles (cucumbers - they look like pickles on the package)!! It will be fun to watch it grow :)

For Mother's Day we hung out at home together. We went out & enjoyed the awesome evening on the deck. I brought out a bunch of toys....my bean bag.....my blankets.....my sleeping bag......

BV PARK

5.9.09

After we checked out the plot, we went to BV park for a walk since it was right down the road.

It was fun to explore a different place. The trails were cool - & they even have a tepee there!

PLOT

5.9.09

I got to help Dad check out one of his plots today down by Linn Grove. Dad thought maybe if I helped, it would go faster.... He said he was wrong though...

We did stand counts. I can't quite count to 33 yet...

So I just moved Dad's stakes around. He said something about having 1/1000th of an acre staked off in each hybrid and how I was not supposed to move the stakes, but it was more fun to move them than it was to count!

TURKEY EGGS

5.6.09

Mom got a break from planting due to the rain. So this afternoon she & I decided to take a walk out back with the dogs to look for morrals. We didn't find any morrals - but we found TURKEY EGGS :) The hen jumped off the nest when we got close.

There were 13 eggs - AWESOME!!

I LOVE the water!!!

I threw A LOT of sticks in the creek :)

I even found a turkey feather on the trail - but Abby took it from me :(

Apparently Mom must have thought my pants were dirty :)

We went home & helped Gramp Richard pick up rocks & put them in the skid loader - WOW what a day!!

Want to see a worm?!?! (Mom didn't get it in the picture) That is the fun part of picking up rocks - you get to look for worms under them!!!

GO CART

5.3.09

We went down to Webb this morning & got to ride on the GO CART!!!! Chloe & Carter were back for Bella's birthday party. Happy 1st Birthday Bella!!!

I am a steering wheel hog :) Let's GO!!

MARSHMALLOWS

4.26.09

While Mom was talking on the phone I decided to stick my marshmallows in my ears!! For some reason Mom grabbed the camera - & then made me take them out. I know she thought it was funny - she just won't admit it :)

Most of you probably know I LOVE chips!!!!! Today Mom & I went to Hy-Vee & passed by "Nancy's chips" - so we had to get some :)
