Landscaping





We have begun landscaping. Grass is beginning to fill in the bald spots. We planted 2 palm trees and several varieties of perennials focusing mainly on our entrance and around the RV. On a recent trip to GA we brought back several bulbs and plants that will spread quickly such as Daffodils, Day Lilies, Hydrangeas, Hostas, Irises, and Lambs Ear. We hope to have lots of color by next summer.

Earth day project.





On Earth Day, Kelsey planted her garden. We had begun the seeds indoors and it was time to get them in the ground. Dad helped with the ground preparation and made the rows. Plants have been in the ground for several weeks now and are doing well. We are looking forward to enjoying fresh fruits and vegetables this summer.

Progress on building #2




Building #2 is almost done. The kids helped their Dad with the finishing touches. It needs a door and a floor, but that won't take long and it will be ready to move in the tools.

The kids have been a big help on all the projects around here. They have been painting, nailing, drilling, digging, and much, much more.

Even though they complain about it while they are doing it (isn't that the teenage way?) I think they really feel proud of what they accomplished when it is all done.

So, kudos to the kids and Robert on a job well done.
