Cloudy day

Nothing much to report on last week, other than Ted was in Utah doing field work (as in stopping at hot springs and breweries, and using the latest technology to scan rock landscapes) while I got the flu here at home. Thank goodness for friends and babysitters. I feel blessed to be surrounded by such caring people who brought me food and took the boys out while I was stuck in bed. Thank you!

Over the weekend we re-seeded our chicken run and filled our compost hopper to the very top. All of the neighborhood kids have been climbing the compost hill and think it's the best thing ever. Our peas are in the ground, and we are in the process of fixing up our herb garden. The lemon balm is now under control, and reduced down to 1 mound. It's nice...but seriously, there's only so much you can do with lemon balm.

I'm busy planning a very important birthday surprise for my hubby who turns 30 on Friday! It's going to be great!! I'm determined not to spill the beans until it gets here, so I won't say any more. Blog update to follow :)

And now, what you really came here for....some pictures of our adorable spawn:
