Spring !

I love Spring!!

 Our first rose this year. Our rose bush has struggled a little since we moved it last year. I prunned it back a bunch but so far only one section has buds.

 

Caught these cute little Quail couple wandering through the lettuce in our gutter garden on the back deck today. In the next few weeks there will be four kinds of lettuce for us to munch on. Yumm

 Our "Tree Fairies" were busy spring cleaning this week & making improvements to the front of their house. They decided to paint their front door to match ours. The kids keep knocking but the fairies have still been to shy to come out. I dont think they are done with their curb appeal yet though, well have to wait and see what else they do.

The kitchen window has also been very full housing all our seedlings for the garden. We currently have Lettuce, Beans, Peas, Squash, Cucumbers, Melon, Celery, Green onions, Mint, Parsley, Sage, & Rosemary growing. It's been really fun to watch all the plants grow and change everyday.  We have already taken a Pumpkin, Watermelon, & Lettuce out of the window to their new homes outside. On the deck we have Peas and Carrots growing in tubs. Ill post more garden pics when everything is in full swing.

When Mom's Away

 A few weekends ago, I was able to take a wonderful  trip to Los Angeles to spend some time with my friend Kelly and celebrate her birthday with her. I had a great, relaxing time that was sorely needed. Unfortunately I dont have any pics... forgot to bring my camera. Ben cried the whole way taking me to the airport but quickly got over it when Daddy took them to a McDonalds for dinner.They had a wonderful weekend with Dad and Mommy had a wonderful weekend just being "Kim".

  

This is the kind of fun stuff you get to do with Daddy when Mommy is away for the day.

 Ben channeling his inner Bono

Every once and a while Ill go to grab the camera to take some pictures and find that it's been " Kid Cam'd "

Here is just a few of around 50 I found today. The posed pictures are probably by Hannah with Ben taking the close ups. Just a guess though.
