So, Lin's Grocery store had these amazing butterfly nets for a buck 25. Kaden probably ran 7 miles today chasing after grasshoppers and yellow butterflies. It was so fun! He ran around like a wild man while I worked on the garden. We then tried to set up a picnic under an umbrella but the wind was a little too serious, luckily the picnic was still a success.

We put these raised beds in about 2.5 years ago, I think, and this last winter the freeze/thaw really pushed out the walls. So, I've taken the walls down and am now in the midst of leveling them again. I'm going to run a cable through opposing sides of the garden then tie the cable to a re bar that will hold it against itself. I'm open to any suggestions if you have them! Kaden stuck with the project for a day or so, but then lost interest and moved on to hunting insects in Walker's field next to us. Kaden's favorite part of the garden project has been the "cinnamon-pedes" (centipedes). They are so funny!

Sadie has definitely inherited the Lewis girls' fuzz head. I do believe it adds a level of personality to all of us!

Sadie has definitely become the fashion queen in our house... Every morning I throw her clothes over the banister and then we come down and eat breakfast in our pajamas so we can then change into clean clothes for the day. (Breakfast can devastate the day's clothes in 10 seconds). After eating, she'll go to the stairs and start draping her clothes over herself, trying them out and seeing how cute she is or if it fits her mood. If nothing works, she starts roaming around naked.

Momma Louisa had an amaryllis bulb stashed in Crescent City, Ca. Liz brought it to Cedar City, let it sit for a couple of months, then watered and cared for it, then moved to Florida...here's where I picked up the project...

Kaden loves his morning routine and recently Sadie has picked up on it...brushing her teeth is one of her favorites.
