First Radishes of the Seson

Today when the sky was clear, we headed out to the garden to see how our veggies were doing. Other then needing to put some more slug bait down; everything looks great! The weeds really took off with all the rain we’ve had while we were gone. I need to get back out there and work around the box to clear the area so slugs don’t hide.

We have our first radishes! They were tasty!!
We have even had lettuce too.

Kindergarten: Day 167 – Teddy Bear Picnic 2012

Today was the Teddy-Bear Picnic at school for all preschool and kindergarten classes and we made it back from vacation just in time for Isabel to attend! She was so excited!

Due to the weather, the picnic was held in the gym and the 6-graders had fun games for the kids to play. It was a great turnout, much better then last year, with a lot more parents attending!

Her “new” teddy bear from Grandpa went with her to the picnic.

Mrs. Boettcher let her use the little bumble bee teddy bear during class. Since the class brought their bears to class that day. After our picnic time we headed home while the full day kids went on with the rest of their day. Great fun!

Backyard

Our backyard grass didn’t make it through the rainy season this year (even with our french drain in place). We have to much clay in the dirt and which doesn’t let all the water drain from the yard. We’ve had a pool of standing water for most of the season. After the rains stop and the ground dries out…

We’ll work on it and hopefully get it back to normal. What a mess!

Photo Fix Up

How’s it going?

I haven’t fallen off the planet or anything. I’ve been busy organizing photos on my computer the last several days(and working).

Several years ago, I had started organizing the photos my own way and then changed my mind the other day to just go with a more simpler way. So now I’ve been changing the files that I had organized my own way. When I get that finished, I’ll be back to scanning and blogging.

Until then, enjoy going back to older posts and reading them all over again or for the first time! I know I have enjoyed going through my thousands and thousands+ of photos!

Kindergarten: Day 131 – Fun Lunch

Today was Chapel but Isabel and she mentioned that one of the teacher’s gave the message today because the Principal, who was going to give the message today, was gone. Isabel said she believes she is sick.

When I dropped her off this morning she mentioned that one of the girls got “bangs” over the Easter holiday. So she pointed her out to me.

Isabel said they went to recess before Chapel because everyone was acting so well. I told her that was great because on most Chapel days, they don’t get recess because of Chapel.

Today was “fun lunch”. Isabel got to stay and eat lunch with her class. They had Papa John’s pizza and other goodies.
