I planted my peas

April 2, 2013

in garden

This past Saturday was extraordinary. Being out in the sun with Craig and the boys made me feel like a kid again. I can’t believe how much my body longed for the warm sunshine.

My goal was to plant peas. It happened. With the kind help of a neighbor that came over and tilled half my garden the other day, the ground was ready. Craig amended the soil with compost, peat, fertilizer, and blood meal. All organic, of course. We set up some nylon netting this year as a trellis. I hope it works out. Four varieties went into the ground. A bit of rain settled them in. Now we wait.

My boys willingly helped. The little guy did so by taking soil by the shovel full and filling his cart. He also made dirt angels as if it were snow. My oldest helped with working the soil and assembling the trellis. To have my boys out in the garden with me is the ultimate. I couldn’t be happier.

Some say he looks like my husband

Some say he looks like me

I see me in him more and more every day

His face, cooky sense of humor, expressions…

He hangs with me every day

Cool.

We had some sweetness visit us for Hanukkah.  My twin nephews.  This is Avery.

We also do a little Christmas.  This was our first year with a real Christmas tree.  It was very nice and added the perfect touch to our living room.

Then, before you know it, it was New Years Eve.  Looks a lot like Halloween though.

The kids played and played until way after midnight.

I am so happy for my friend Lizzie.  She found the man of her dreams!  He is funny and cute and so so so nice.  I was totally thrilled when she asked me to take her engagements photos.  We had a complete blast.  After all was edited and printed and delivered, she left me the sweetest message about how she now has to go shopping for all new frames because none of the ones she has are worthy.  Way to make me feel awesome!

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you enjoy them for a lifetime sweet friend.

It was three years ago today that this happened. Our sweet little Cubby was the newest addition to our family. Since that wild day, he has found his way into everyone’s hearts.

He has a glance that is intense but makes your insides warm when he flashes his big eyes at you.

 

This boy lights up a room with his cute little smile.

 

He loves to put on a show (like his brother)…

 

Acting silly is also on the top of list…

 

An adventurer at heart…

 

Independent and strong…

 

This kid will do great things…

 

I just know it.

 

Happy Birthday my love.

Meet four week old Alex.  I just adore the crinkles where his cheek meets his chin.  Thank you Lisa for welcoming me into your home.
