Happy Earth Day



We went to Lowe's today to check out the plants. There were so many to pick from. I let each of the kids pick a flower. Evie picked a dark pink snapdragon and Isaac picked orange marigolds. I just wanted to have a tomato plant and Greg got 6 different herbs. I am really excited to dry the herbs and store them for the winter. It's not a garden but it will have to do for now. Isaac is my little waterer and keeps checking the plants to make sure they don't get thirsty. The kids are so excited about watching them grow. It was never my favorite thing to work in the garden as I was growing up (sorry Mom) but I am glad that I have a love of it now.

We have been enjoying some sun here too, but it's not consistent enough for me to go buy flowers yet, even though I really want to. Not sure how that would work with my giant boot still on though. Anyway, it looks like you had a lot of fun. Congrats on the upcoming arrival too.
