Years ago when I was growing vegetables I also planted a bed of Strawberries. Later the Strawberry bed was converted to a flower bed but I left the Strawberries in place. The Strawberry plants weave their way around Black-Eyed Susan, Coneflower, Russian Sage and more.
I usually just snack on the berries while I’m working in the yard and that’s about the extent of it. This morning the Daughter and Grand-daughter decided to go harvest some.
We haven’t planted vegetables in years but I decided to have the Grandkids plant a few. We planted 2 tomatoes and 1 pepper. One of the Grandsons went to inspect the plants today and discovered one of the tomatoes and the pepper plants missing. Evidently our resident bunny got to them.
I put a guard around the remaining tomato.
Celebrated Ally’s 6th birthday tonight. We had grilled hamburgers, Tara’s pasta salad, cake and ice cream. For gifts she received a Nintendo DS, games for the DS, a dress and tights.
Grandkids helping in the garden today.
Today Nova, Tara, myself and the Grandkids made duct tape wallets.
Videos the grand-kids made while here.
Today, me Tara, Nova and the boys went to the Kansas Cosmosphere in Hutchinson. We toured the museum which is excellent, we viewed a movie about the Hubble telescope in the IMAX theater, watched the planetarium show and history and a demonstration show on the rocket. The few pics below don’t even begin to do the place justice.
Before leaving Hutch we stopped at El Potrillio for lunch.
This morning after breakfast on the patio the Grandkids painted clay pots for the garden.
While going through the shed looking for pots to paint I found the first one below that our Daughter painted when she was a kid. The second one she painted while here.
