Garden and Princess Parade

Paige had such a good time she fell asleep in the car!
This is as close to a family picture as we get these days. Hardly ever are we all looking at the camera at the same time!
Paige went to a birthday party recently. All the girls had to wear their favorite princess clothes. At the party, they did their hair, make up and nails. Once everyone was dressed, the girls danced in the driveway and went on a princess parade.

Every day after the YMCA, Paige want to come home and see the vegetables. She checks to see how much they have grown.
The girls love squirting the plants with water bottles. Who knew such a simple task could occupy them for hours on end day after day. I am all for it!


Mark and I have been trying our luck with our green thumbs. So far we have spent a lot of money on compost and soil.... We planted a "salsa" garden. It has tomatoes, bell peppers, banana peppers, jalapenos and onion. We grew some green beans, corn and okra from seeds. Everything is doing OK at this point... The grass in our backyard was almost completely dead, as was the tree, but they have both show evidence of new life these past few weeks.
