Gardening

This year, since we're moving mid-sunmer, we didn't plant a big garden.  I was just going to do herbs but Owen had to have one tomato plant and wanted to try and grow carrots this year.  He can't wait so every now and then we pull up one to see how they are growing.  This is what it's looking like these days.  He actually ate them and said they were delicious!  Hopefully they'll grow a lot in the next 2 1/2 weeks before we leave!  I love that O loves to garden!

Blueberry Pie & Whittling

For one of Parker's Bear Scout requirements, he had to help make a dessert for his family.  We made this blueberry pie.  He did a great job, it was really yummy.  (Notice O in the back with nothing but his underwear!  The kids were in their pjs when I took this pic.  This is Owen's new thing to sleep in only his undies.)
 He also had to whittle.  He whittled this mini bat/ mini paddle.
Parker loves scouts and loves to work on it.  Scott tries to help work on his requirements on Sunday afternoons.

Addie's Cheeks!

Why is it that little girls never notice that their swimsuits are up their bum?  You'd think it would bother them but it doesn't seem to.  I love seeing Addie's little cheeks hanging out of her suit - so cute.
