This past weekend was very busy, besides working the yard, seeding grass and hauling manure we managed to celebrate our 17th wedding anniversary on Sunday. The celebrating started at 9:30 pm and ended at 9:45 pm when we went to bed (to sleep!).
While Carolyn and I were busy working in the yard Erinn was busy working on her hula hooping.
For our anniversary I got Carolyn not just one rock but several. Don't be deceived, these things were huge! Carolyn helped load the small one and I hefted the rest into the back of the truck, with the bumper dragging we drove them home. On the drive I commented about it seeming silly that we are hauling rocks from the city out to the country when we are surrounded by them, Carolyn's reply was, "Well they were free!".
I managed to get the pooh rotor-tillered in before church on Sunday afternoon, then, after getting the kids off to bed we ventured back out and got the spuds and the beans planted. With only 4 rows planted Carolyn picked up some peas and planted them as well. Next year she wants to make the garden twice as big, next she'll want a green house!
Since our trees aren't big enough yet this is the only watering I can do in the yard without the neighbours getting exited. They have been forecasting rain however last night we only got a five minute sprinkle, I might have to start doing more of this in the yard.
After getting everything planted and watered we finally sat down on the back deck and had a glass of wine to celebrate our wedding anniversary but after the busy day we were so beat that it was short lived and off to bed we went since both of us had to return to work the next day.
Last night we had a little visitor come spend the night at our house. This is Trinity, she is Carolyn's brother & sister-in-law's newest addition; now Ben has a baby sister and the girls have another girl cousin, now they are are only 2 behind to catching up with the boys (on the Zimmer side they are still up by 3; poor Blair!).
This week will prove to be busy as well with both Carolyn & I working Monday to Friday and the kids with their dance recital on Thursday, Friday & Saturday. Lately we've been appreciating going to work for the relaxation!
