Our Garden This Week

Well, this is a little late but...

When we went out to check the garden on Sunday, we had yellow squash and more zucchini.

Our plants are growing really big!

The corn has shot up, its about 3 feet tall now.  The tomato plants are getting really big and have small tomatoes on them.  The squash and zucchini plants are so big they are taking over the pepper plants.  I hope the peppers still grow.

The girls were excited that we got more stuff from our garden.  They were really excited about how BIG the zucchini was.

We picked most of the stuff that needed picking and brought it in.  Guess we will be having squash and zucchini for supper soon!

Playin' In The Rain

My girls in their slickers playing in the rain!

A Trip to the Zoo

My girls have been wanting to go to the zoo for a while now.  Finally, Sunday, we are going to take the girls to the zoo!  They are going to love all of the animals, actually seeing them in person.

I was looking at the website and found that they are showing a 4D movie

Dora & Diego.  My girls are going to LOVE that!

I can not wait to see the girls faces when they find out where we are going.  I haven't told them that we are going so it is going to be a BIG surprise. I think I am just going to wait until we pull in and they see the signs.

I will take plenty of pictures to share after we get home!

Our Garden This Week

We worked in the garden a little yesterday. It was a shock to see that we now have zucchini growing! This grew over night! I am so excited with the plants that we have coming up so pretty! I can not wait until we can actually use the food we grew. Our girls are still loving helping in the garden so that is definitely a plus. I love our family time! Here are some pictures of the garden this week!

Dentist Day

Today we are off to the dentist. My girls, age 4 and 3, say they are going to go back by themselves this time. Hmm....wonder if that will happen. Probably not! They like going to the dentist but for some reason they are scared to go back there. I guess it just takes time to get them used to everything. Another part of the Busy Mommy World!

Today's Build And Grow Clinic~ School House

Here are some pictures from the Build and Grow Clinic today! The girls really had fun!

Fun, FREE, Activities for kids!

I have recently discovered the Lowe's Build and Grow workshops. Where have I been?

For those of you that are like me and do not know what this is, Lowe's Home Improvement has a workshop for kids every Saturday morning. Its FREE!!!!

The suggested age is usually like 5yrs old, I think, however I have taken my girls for the past two weeks and they did fine with help from mommy and daddy.
(My girls are 4yrs and almost 3yrs)

The first week that we went they made a baseball game. This was really exciting for them since they have never done any woodworking before and also because daddy plays ball.

Then last weekend the project was a See It Grow Flower box. This is really cute. After putting the boxes together, the girls were given dirt and tomato seeds to plant in their boxes.

We have now set the boxes on the deck so that the girls can keep a check on them. They were really excited because now they have their very on tomato garden.

Today's project is a bird feeder. My girls are excited to make this one because we have lots of bird feeders hanging around our yard so now they will have their own.

If you have a Lowe's Hardware near you and little ones, you should really check out the Build and Grow workshops. Add a little family time and best its FREE!

Our Family Garden

My husband and I have been living in this house for going on 7 years and have only ever planted grass.

Finally this year we have started our very own garden. Yay! I am so excited!
This is a family project. Our girls really loved helping with the planting and now with the watering. We started the garden Easter weekend and already have plants coming up from our seeds we planted.

We did have a little mole decide he wanted to travel through and distroyed a few of our plants but we took care of him.


I love seeing the girls faces when we go out and there is a new plant growing. They are really excited because they helped plant everything. I can not wait until we actually get to start picking the vegetables that we grew.
The girls are REALLY going to love that!
