Spring break

This spring break we did nothing but recoup from the hiking trip, and get some much needed yardwork done.  I finally am going to have a garden this year and Nate helped me to make it look spectacular.

Doing a little extra reading



Caught a glimpse of this guy chasing girls.

A little help goes a long way

 

Never get tired of this kind of help

 

Even Roxie loves to help

 

This is the best dog, she loves the outdoors and has hypochondriac tendencies like me.

The littles took a break for some fun double swinging

 

 

 

 

The finished product.  Three 4 x 8 square foot gardens.  I am going to leave the last one without grids and put the tomatoes and the climbing squash over there.  One of the things that I am going to implement from the aquare foot gardening book is to stagger the planting weeks and think about sections that I want to harvest every week.  That way I can have the veggies I love all summer long rather than it coming in all at once.  I am excited to get started this week with the planting.

A little beautifying in the house as well.
