Catching up...

A lot has happened since my last post:

-we had a baby
-we got another cat
-I got a new job

More on each of those later...also note the slideshow which I hope to have up soon...

I'm back!

It's been a while, but I'm back and now much more comfortable with blogging, having completed my Master's Degree. Tess has gotten much larger and now enjoys hunting birds (with her imagination) as the eat from the birdseed we just hang on our porch. The tomato plants are gone (we got a couple small ones but determined they were in too small a pot to really grow). Now that my wife is on break we'll have to wait and see what (if anything) springs up. Of course, she is now busy preparing for kindergarten next year...after teaching special ed this will be quite the change.

More to come again soon!

Purple flowers please!

Also, if anyone knows how we can get our hydrangea flowers back to purple, please feel free to give input...

Thanks!

Our patio garden is coming along nicely! Pictured here are our 4 tomato plants. The first (on your left is the beefsteak tomato plant which has two nice sized tomatoes growing. You can see one of them if you look closely near the bottom. Next to it is a stripey boy, the only one yet to grow anything other than lots of leaves. Third, with the yellow ribbon, has 8 (at last count) cherry tomatoes growing. The fourth, a lemon boy, has three developing.

Also pictured is our hydrangea. This little(?) flower made quite a turn around, from being almost completely dead back to this. We think the pinkness of the flowers may be due to acidic soil/water.

Our family blog...news and events to come...
