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!

  1. Fuzz head! You two girls look GREAT! So happy. As for Kaden...looks like the time of a life! What a lucky boy.

    I can't wait to see what becomes of your garden. Gardening is my passion. Too bad I live in the frozen tundra. Maybe someday it will stop snowing, then I will start on the garden.
