Winter Gardening

The other day my friend commented on Facebook that she was doing some winter gardening. Winter gardening?!?!? No sooner did I ask her about it, then she brought me her leftover seeds. So, while the rest of the country is freezing and looking for ways to keep warm, we are basking in our 75 degree weather and -- well, winter gardening! We planted sugar snap peas, broccoli, radishes, and carrots. Thanks bunches, Katie!!!

Bragging, day 2...

Here I go, again... bragging away... Remember the winter gardening we began a few weeks back? And, remember how my sweet husband invited the girls to help him? (If not, you can go here) Well, those seeds have literally sprouted away! So, my son-of-an-engineer husband did a little research online and found that our sugar snap peas needed something to climb on; and went right to work! Here's what he came up with:

Allison is so excited, she can hardly stand it! "Mom, I can't wait for spring! Look at all these yummy vegetables growing. It's just so exciting! And, the lavender are starting to blossom... Oh, Mom... I just LOVE spring time." Me too, sweetie!
