Garden/Flowers

C has decided he wants to take control of the flower bed in our back yard, so I thought it would be a great experience for him. He also wants to help do our little vegetable garden. So, today while we were in town we got something to plant. N and him got out there right away to get busy.

C trying to explain to N what he is doing.

Had to stop for a picture.

I can't wait till it starts growing and he can see his labor produce. He will be so proud of his gardening.

I love my husband

I had a huge surprise today. I was standing and talking to B and her boyfriend about what a crazy day I had doing taxes; when there was a knock at the door. Here is what I got.

Red roses

They are so pretty. I get teary eyed every time I look at them. Miss him very much. Praise the Lord he will be home in a few weeks. Just wanted to share with everyone.

Taxes

Ok, so I finally got our taxes done and filed all states but Missouri. So glad to have all that done and out of the way. It has been a very long process since we file so many states. Just thankful to have it done. Got my running around done today so that the rest of this week we can do school work, yard work, and house work. Sounds like a lot of fun. I have never been one to mess in the yard unless it is a vegetable garden. 


Kids are doing great. Big kids just finished the quarter so will be getting report cards really soon. B is working and getting things in order for prom, so he stays pretty busy. V & D are both running track and they have their 1st meets this week. C is in soccer and cub scouts. He has his 1st game on the 26th. N & K are just growing like crazy. (Makes me want another baby.) I babysit a friends though to help with the feelings.


M is suppose to be coming home the beginning of next month and I am so ready for that. This has been a long run but I know it has to be for now. Still praying for work at home so he can be involved with the family more. I know he is going to be tired when he gets home after this job. Over all we are all doing well and extremely blessed.
