We planted a garden not really expecting much. Our soil was rocky and sandy, there was no real irrigation system to speak of, but we had high hopes and threw the dice! BOY DID WE SCORE BIG TIME!!



We had a lot of fun going into the garden to "hunt". We did get to enter some produce into the fair. Adessa has a thing or two to say to the judges about that ;). We learned a lot and the kids learned about the food pantry, and a program called Bountiful Baskets where donations are taken and shared with other needy families in the area. It was a great experience! But you know what they say about "all work and no play". So off they went!!!

Oh, and just a fair warning, we like to whistle while we work! Here they come again!

This last video is on the first day of school, Monday August 29, 2011.Adessa's backpack on the first day of school

She's got that CrAzY look in her eyes again, boy I sure hope they were ready for her!!

Meanwhile... back at the ranch....;)
inspecting the work.

Even Friend enjoys the new improvements!

does she know who the judges were?! :) Looks like a bunch of fun is going on and I'm not there to supervise...could be dangerous. haha
Makes me quiver with fear to see Adessa and Jexten on the four wheeler whipping around. I can't believe they are old enough to do that. But I guess, I did put Vicky on a horse even a little younger than that. Great job on your garden. It will get even better as the years go by! What great school days for both kids!
