A Cardinal's Nest

     Dad found this nest at a house where he was working.  I have never seen a cardinal's nest before, and so I have really enjoyed seeing the pictures that Dad has taken.
 



 
The eggs look so lovely!

Garden Pictures







 Lettuce 
  Carrots
Broccoli



We have vegetables growing in our garden!  It has been so fun to water and look at how our plants are doing each day, but we have a lot of thinning to do.

Baby Boy Blanket


This blanket I crocheted for our friends at church who just had a sweet baby boy.  The boarder is one I hadn't tried before, but I really like the way it turned out!  Thanks Mrs. A for showing me this new boarder.

Baby Bunnies



      Dad found these baby bunnies in our backyard while he was mowing.  They are so small and sweet!

  



Ellen and I had been out in the backyard, and we didn't even see the nest.

Funny Pictures

Last week I was taking pictures outside, and I decided to try the setting that stills moving objects. So I called Ginger and as she ran in front of me I took a picture. This is how they turned out.

Working on our Raised Garden

Putting the soil in.

We started with thirty bags of soil but in the end we put in 41!

The pile is getting smaller. :)


Almost half way!


Dad nailed some temporary netting over part of the garden so Ellen and I could push the big chunks through it to break them up.


Now all of the soil is in! We are going to try to plant lettuce, green beans, broccoli, carrots, onions, and maybe some others things too!

Spring Flowers





I have really been enjoying all of the lovely flowers.
