Our Meager Little Garden

This blog is as a result of Brandon Hess. He told me the other day at the Salt Lake

Buzz game we went to that our blog stuck. He made the comment because we haven't

blogged very frequently. So, here you go Brandon this one is for you.

We have been pretty busy lately. Jess left for the MTC on wednesday June 3rd. It was a really quick goodbye because the MTC is afraid of the Swine Flu spreading anymore that it already has inside. A total of 3 missionaries have it. Needless to say my Mom wasn't a happy camper after we threw Jess out on the curb and got run off by a cranky old Elder missionary. This is about the only decent picture we got of Jess before he had to go inside. We didn't even get to see his missionary tag.

On to other items of interest. Today when I got home from work Britney and I decided to see how green our thumbs really are. I planted actual plants in a big pot, which included: corn, carrots, peas, onions, and little tiny pumpkins. I really don't know if they will actually grow, but it will be fun to see what comes up. I'm mostly excited for the corn. I think it will be amazing if i can get it to grow in a pot. To tell you the truth there it probably too much trying to grow in one pot. Britney on the other hand got some flowers and and put them in her own pots.

This is my mini garden

This is Britney's flower garden in the process.

And here is the finished product.

We are having tons of fun being home this summer. I didn't realize what it was like to not be a slave for the summer. We'll see if we can make this a more frequent event.
