Catupults and Gardening and Baby Chicks











Yesterday we made catapults. The boys had a great time letting different things fly through the air. Fortunately, they did not fly far! One time, Cade turned the catapult towards himself and shot himself in the face. He decided real quick that that wasn't very smart:)

We planted corn, lettuce, broccolli, and carrots in the garden yesterday. We planted pepper and tomato plants on saturday. I have several more things I want to plant but I am waiting for Russ to finish the boxes that I am planting in. I am hoping that the weeds won't be as bad in planter boxes. Isaac wants to plant large pumpkins so we have a spot on the ground for that. Russ bought a tiller for $100.00. It has been working great! A great investment:) We are really enjoying the garden so far. But the weeding hasn't started yet. lol. We have been looking forward to this garden since last season. We are still enjoying corn, squash, pickles and bell peppers from last years garden. I haven't bought a bell pepper, corn, or squash, in 2 years.

Today we bought some baby chicks. They are adorable. Cade really likes them. The 2 yellow ones are his. He named them Fred and Bowser. The cat was really interested in them also. We just pray they live!
