We finally have some pretty flowers springing up!

Grandpop and Grandmom's Visit

My parents arrived the night before Spiderman's birthday for a three-week visit in Idaho! They drove across the country this time... so they were able to bring their own car and lots of stuff with them! We are enjoying some of the books and things from my childhood that have been at their house all this time... My dad built a garden gate/fence for our vegetables... we double the size of our garden this year. My mom is sewing quilted pillow shams for the boys, curtains, hemming pants for me and put Hubby's certified arborist patch on his jacket! We organized the pantry... installed a window A/C (so it's ready when this weather gets better!)... went to some yard sales... touched up paint all over the house... and more! They are staying at my sister's house at the moment, but they'll be back. Tomorrow we'll go to a Tball game together. It's nice to have them around. And very helpful when I have to teach a lesson!!!

Love you, Mom and Dad! Thanks for being here with us!
Here are some pictures from our time so far: (Heritage Day celebration at school--cattle roping cowboy!, Walter's Ferry with Hoseleys, building the fence and playing with Grandpop)

The Harvest

Grilled Zucchini - one of my favs!

a few cans of Tomatoes

Green Beans and Sliced Tomatoes

Not so much a fan of the Zucchini...

(not pictured - peppers and homemade salsa!)
