Garden

I love that Jamison is so into the garden. It has to be one of the best parts of being in our new home. While be feel like we are constantly fighting an uphill battle against the weeds we still have enjoyed trying to get some fun veggies and fruits to grow. We are learning a lot as we spend this year seeing what happens in our yard and will be able to better prepare for next year. The 3 deer, evil squirrels and quail ( count now up to 26) have been the worst of all. Is it terrible that Jamison will see a squirrel in the yard and exclaim, " I am going to shoot that squirrel and eat it!" It's a bit unnerving but I think to myself, ya lets go for it minus the eating part. Bad I know. If you only knew that battle we have had with these wonderful little creatures.



Anyhow, I love watching Jamison tending this little garden. He is super great at pulling weeds, watering, and it is so rewarding to see your child out picking blackberries and green beans. And eating strawberries right off the plant. And I have to give a huge shout out to Terry for all his hard work. He has been a valiant bug sprayer. I believe he saved our cherries from a horrific bug death and he has done so much more out there. Just about everyday after work he heads straight out to the yard and is working with his little side kick until late in the evening.
