....when you have a garden like ours! Seriously every time I go and look at our garden I am just overwhelmed with happiness. I could sit there for hours and examine all the new growth and the flowers and yes, the weeds. There is magical about watching a garden grow, it's like watching your kids grow, faster of course. It is not only food for our belly but food for our souls.
Speaking of food for our souls, we had the missionaries over last night for dinner and a lesson with Rochelle. I'm not exactly sure why we don't do that more often because my cup gets filled every time they come over. It's so easy to get side tracked in life and forget what our main purpose in life is. Nothing like having a nice dinner with missionaries to put you back on your path.
Piper playing in the garden, at least today she didn't pick anything!
Having fun with Auntie Rochelle...notice her new fire red hair.
This evening we had another fire, more smores, and lots of getting wet in the sprinkler (at least Rochelle and Piper did) only tonight Nate suggested I do my own marshmallows, which of course was not the same as his. We have a cantaloupe the size of a softball growing and a watermelon the size of a grape starting, life is wonderful!
Charly is giving us daily updates of her time in SA, she is there with my mom visiting until Friday when we meet up in Carthage TX for the 4th of July. She went and saw Ice Age 3 today and went and played at (*gasp*) McDonald's afterward lol! She enjoys being the center of attention and since Rochelle is here, she is definitely getting that in SA.
When Rochelle leaves I am going to have to detox my body from sugar, we have made so many treats this week.
