My Little Garden...

This is the amount of space that I have for a garden. Usually I plant all flowers but I decided to plant vegetables! I'm so excited to have fresh veggies this summer!!!
My pretty Columbines...

Zucchini...
Yellow ("wax") beans. Planted from seeds less than two weeks ago. They grow more every day.
Peas. Also planted from seeds...I also planted Yellow peppers! I didn't take a picture of them though because they aren't as exciting as the rest.
Be looking for new pictures as my plants mature.
Have great day!

Finally...

I have had these lillies for around three years. They were given to me from one of my mother's neighbors. This is the first time there have been any blooms on the plant. There is actually a plant right beside this one that still hasn't ever bloomed. Anyway, by the time all the buds were done opening, I had a total of seven blooms on it. Needless to say, I was very happy!!!
While I was working on the truck for Isaac, Jackson and Aurora both wanted to paint. I didn't let them the whole time, but on one day they had been really good that morning, so I let them both have a small canvas to work with. This one is Jackson's. The next day he gave the painting to his Aunt Heather. I hope she likes it!!
Hope you all have and Amazing Day!!!

Auri Loving on Hannah...

Last night Auri was sitting on the floor playing (mostly talking to herself and singing) and Hannah (the cat) came to see her. Auri loves this cat very much, but sometimes shows it in not very friendly ways. Like laying on her, and picking her up and carrying her around. The cat takes the bruteness, but as soon as she has a chance she runs. Fast. Auri also chases her around the house, trying to catch her, and Hannah just runs away squacking. It's very cute!
Kissing Hannah's head.

Isaac's Birthday!

Thursday May 15th was Isaac's 8th birthday. We all met at mom and dad's house after the boys finished their soccer games (around 8ish).

I had worked about 10 and a half hours over the course of a number of days, on painting this truck for Isaac. He and Papa built it a few months ago and he asked me to paint it for him. So I turned it into a birthday present. I am pretty proud of how it turned out, and I think that he really likes it!!!
