Mother's Day

I'm hoping to get a TON of posts up today to catch up from the last month or so! Stay tuned!!!

These next pictures are a bit of a Mother's Day update. Joshua and the kids built me a garden for Mother's Day. I've been sooo missing gardening since we left CA five years ago; several moves and being pregnant has gotten in the way of getting a decent garden in and thriving. I shared the construction pictures a while back...now here's the "planting" and "halfway there" pics...
Carter planted some strawberries...
Emilee got the tomatoes in...
And now look how wonderful it's doing! We have gotten to eat a couple of delicious strawberries, and we now have some teensy bell peppers and squash sprouting. Hopefully by the end of summer we'll be enjoying tons of fresh tomatoes, peppers, squashes and beans!!
We flew Joshua's mom in for a visit over Mother's Day week and we got to go downtown and see the Oklahoma City National Memorial (this year is the 15th Anniversary of the bombing).
And these flowers were a creation that the kids made for Cathy, myself and our neighbor for Mother's Day from wild flowers that grow in the field behind our house. All three of us were super touched by their project!!
