Ethan's First Baseball game of the Season

Beans beans, good for your heart... I am so excited about the garden! More growth each day.

It's ALIVE!!!

First sign of life in our garden! At the least we will have a pumpkin!

move those feet

6 miles on the bike (which isn't much - don't be impressed) and then later today ran 3 miles.. It felt good to be active today.

Ethan caught on the countertop. At least he was cleaning the sink after brushing his teeth.

Just add water...

Well, just because I planted seeds in the dirt doesn't mean I know what I am doing.

The Square foot garden has begun. There are 2 squares unfilled. I think tomatoes may have to go in one... not sure about the other one.

Square Foot Gardening

Well, my brother inspired me(and no, that is not a picture of my brother) and showed me this website. I am officially excited about this.

I built a box about 4' x 4' and 6" tall. Filled it with a special mix of compost(not homemade... maybe someday), Peatmoss and Vermiculite(which I didn't know what that was until today).

Tomorrow I plan to get the kids out there with me and we are going to begin planting.
Here is the list of vegetables we are going to try and grow:
Onion
Potato
Garlic
corn
Bell Pepper

among other things... still deciding.

This should be an exciting(hopefully fruitful) adventure....

I can't help it.

I have been getting excited about the last season of Lost. Just finished watching on Hulu. I am always a couple of days after it first airs... so when the last episode plays... don't spoil it for me. :)

We had a great time out at Lake Kincaid It was fun to have moments to talk as adults and have time to goof off with the kids.
