Our Garden

For Valentine's day I wanted Scott to build me some planter boxes, so after a trip to The Home Depot and an argument later :) we made it home with all the supplies we would need, or so we thought! We built as much as we could then Scott went back for a few more items...but alas we have 2 beautiful planter boxes and we have a lot of yummy prospects popping up our summer eats!

the materials...

box #1

Holding it all together...

finishing box #2 (now it was dark)

Plants in progress....

Boxes a-growing!

Kindergarten Events

I have been such a slacker with this blog lately...I am trying to get back in the swing of things...here are some of the fun Madison has been having in the last month of kindergarten!

Her Bug Report...the little stinker picked a red ant! Not a ladybug, or a butterfly, but the nasty red ant...so here she is building her model.

It turned out really cute...I stuck my ground and made her do it all by herself (I helped cover the box, though)

Ready to turn in the model...

Jog-a-thon day:

Showing off her fast running shoes!

Getting a lap marked off...she ran/jogged 7 laps.

Go Maddie!

At school:

With her class and Ms. Lunn

Silly kiddos!

Mother's Day

We spend Mother's day close to home this year...so we headed to Bab's for a yummy breakfast. I had made cake pops for dessert, but do to the hour and a half wait they ended up being an appetizer! Here a few pictures from the day, my mom has more photos, since we were chasing Mackenzie around, we didn't get very many! :)
