Time to Play Catch Up

Where has summer gone. I thought it was about time to update. Our summer has consisted of family vacations, reunions, gardening and of course lots of outside time. Here are a few pics of our summer.


Yummm bread....



Chill'n on the princess couch before bed. She loves to just sit and read in this spot.




This is our pot at our community garden. We (mostly I) wanted to try our hand at growing a garden this summer and Logan, like most places, offers plots at the community garden. You get to plant and do things however you want. They provide the earth, tools, and water but you have to do everything else. This is what it looked like when we got it weeded, tilled, and planted in May.



And this is what it looks like today. We have had 9 good size tomatoes, 5 cherry tomatoes, lots of lettuce and 4 zucchini so far and there is SO MUCH more coming on everyday. We are so excited that it has been a success so far and it looks like we will be planting a garden every year to come.
Nothing tastes better than fresh homegrown stuff!

Yummy fresh tomatoes!!!





Reading with Grandpa Gary







Playing with Grandma and Papa

The following pics are of our water baby. Addie absolutely LOVES water. Whether it is the hose, a pool, a puddle, the beach, or a river; she with play in it until she shivers.


Playing with the hose. She even loves it when it squirts her in the face.





Getting the pool all filled up
















Thirsty??

SPLASH, SPLASH, SPLASH!!!















Addie also love to help out around the house. She loves to sweep and wash.

Looks like so much fun! The garden looks awesome! I love that I'm not the only one with a child that likes to help around the house. I'm loving the water pics! Sure miss being about to play in the pool with Addie!
