We started box gardens this year. It was a lot of work! But, it has been worth it. That's one thing I have always wanted to learn how to do, is learn how to grow stuff. We have one with tomatoes and onions, one with carrots, and we just harvested our peas and pulled them out. We put banana peppers and cucumbers in their place. But, the cucumbers aren't doing so well. The tops of our carrots are doing well, but who knows what is down under. Our raspberries are doing well. When we got home from our reunion we had a few red raspberries. Yipee! It's working out. There is nothing like fresh produce.

It may be time to get seperate baskets for our boys!
I like to do our laundry about once a week. I do all of it at a time, so I don't feel like I am always doing laundry. I put the boys clothes in one big rectangle basket. But, I think it may be time to get individual ones for them. If someone were to talk too loud, the laundry would tip. :) It's definitely a balancing act. Wes and I still have this old blue duck taped basket we "borrowed" from mom and dad when we were first married. The duck tape isn't quite holding, so sometimes we get cut on the ripped plastic. There are some things we just refuse to buy new. We just need to buckle down and get a new one.
I remembered when we moved into our condo in Arizona and we got our first washer and dryer. It was sooo nice to not have to go to the coin laundry anymore.
We just got some hand-me-downs from Aunt Sarah's boys. Thank you guys! We love hand-me-downs. They save us so much money. Our kids grow so fast, we feel like we are buying them new clothes often. Our boys were so excited about all the "new" clothes they got from the Fossums. It was cute!

Felix & Midnight
We got some new kitties! We aren't ones for having pets, let alone having them in the house. But, we gave in and got some darling little kitties. They are so fun to watch. They wrestle and they attack everything. Our kids have learned how to be gentle and they help take care of them. We keep them in our laundry room at night.
Last weekend we went up to Rexburg and when we returned they had knocked down our coats and pooed on our painting shirt. The laundry room looked as if a tornado had hit it. We were glad we left them in the room with the door closed. Otherwise our whole house would look that way. :)
I bet you can't guess what cat is named what.

Face Book
I have decided to join facebook. I feel like it is less time consuming. I don't have much time to type online journals. I barely have time to write in my journal & my kid's journals. So, find me on face book.
