Look What I Found!

Look what I found in the garden this week!  Ok, it's not Texas summertime yet, so I can enjoy the garden for a few more weeks at least. 

One Roma Tomato

One Golden Bell Pepper

One Pickling Cucumber

Spring!

Spring has sprung in our garden!  A week ago we (read, Tony) planted our garden.  We planted tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, broccoli, and kale from plants.  We also let the boys pick out some seeds that they wanted to try planting.  They picked carrots, beans, and corn.  After one week, we have many seeds sprouting (and the rest of the plants doing well also).

Only thing still living after last year's drought - rosemary.

Bubbles

Today I took Gabriel, Kai, and Gabriel's friend Ian to Waco.  We went to the zoo, went to lunch, and went to the children's museum.  I'm too tired to write about it all now, but I thought I'd post some of the fun pictures I snapped in the "bubble" room at the children's museum.  By the way - if you live in Central Texas and you've never been to the Mayborn Museum in Waco, you are truly missing out.

Bad Hair Day

I came across this video I made for my mom a few years ago on Mother's Day.  Love the pictures and the song, hate the hair/clothes.  (of course, I can't get decent enough quality to really tell how bad some of the styles were, but you get the idea)

Valentine

Happy Valentine's Day to my favorite Valentine.  Love ya!
