I always enjoy the weekends when I can be at home. I'm especially thankful for sunny, warm weekends. Yes, I am also very thankful for those men, women, K-9s and other 4-legged beings who were called to serve our country. This weekend included the boys out helping place flags on the Veterans graves in our local cemeteries. They'll finish this project next weekend when they help take them down. Bean's Boy Scout troop was also invited to march in the Memorial Day parade as well.
I spent the weekend taking advantage of some of those freedoms our vets fought so valiantly for.
I finished my garden:
Tried some square foot gardening (my boxes are marked by Popsicle sticks, Dizzy was out this afternoon helping me measure and plant all the corn).
We cheered on the Boss while he mowed down the weeds next to the garden. It's hard to see in the picture, but they were over waist high on him (he's over 6'). The horses next door cried to see all that wonderful grass wasted...
I admired my established flower beds, should have some great flower pictures soon, but not if my drip system continues to be broken...
I'm very excited about my first bleeding heart fern and it blooming. I'm hoping the all-white one blossoms soon as well.
We have played a lot of softball this weekend, seems all the equipment has found a home upstairs and my children cannot ever play on a team together!
Purchased a whole, fresh pineapple this weekend. Don't think it will last long...
So, this week, if I can get my drip system to work and get my pumpkin plants to finally germinate, I'll find it a successful week!
Hope all of you found a way to enjoy your weekend!
Be Happy! Be Healthy! Be sure to tell someone you care about them today!
