and I'm going to love it in June when she's off of work and can come over and we can learn domestic things together- like canning or making bread from scratch or something... we ARE still on for that, right Susan???

fun in the backyard.
Is it wrong of me to post this last photo? Probably, but to me, it's just too darn cute.

gardening
We went to WV to visit a week ago,and /Mia sent us home with some tomato plants.
Yesterday I noticed that they were starting to look a little sad, so while we were out, we picked up some pots and dirt and spent some of the windy afternoon transplanting our tomatoes.
I'll have to admit, I was less than patient when Matthew started pouring our bought dirt on my foot and the patio. Other than that though, it was a nice experience.
I was thinking about digging up a small plot of land and starting a (slightly) raised garden bed this summer, but after planting the tomatoes, I decided that I'd probably be better at container gardening- at least this year. That way if I turn out to have a black thumb, there will not be a big, nasty, weedy, grass-less section of yard next year. I'll be looking for large pots this yard sale season... unless you have some you want to hand over? :)

at 'the cabin'
Last week the kids and I went to my mom and dad's property, AKA: 'the cabin'. We had a blast having a picnic and running around while Poppie mowed (with Matthew's help on the tractor) and while Me-mee painted.
Matthew's hat blew off of the tractor at one point (it was a windy day upon that hill!) and went right under the mower.
He was pretty upset. Poppie offered to get him a new hat- But Matthew would have none of it "But. I like this hat" he replied, choking back the tears.
Luckily the biggest damage was the bill of the hat being torn 1/2 way off- and I was able to sew it back on by hand the next morning.
