April 22 Gardening in the Snow


April 22 brought snow to Flagstaff. Dave had a good idea to put a light in the
green house to keep the beans from freezing again. We have a new grop of beans
that haven't froze yet and we are hoping to keep them. So far, so good.

Arden looses her first tooth!

On April 26th Arden pulled her first tooth out. She already had a new one grown in behind it so it is hard to tell that it is the bottom left tooth. She was very excited about it. She pulled it out in the car!























































































































Gardening April 19

Our lettuce is looking good, the rabbit thinks it
just the right size for her!












These are our peas they are thriving!

















We aren't sure what this is, we think it might be spicach. Some seeds got mixed up when we were
planting!









I can't believe this one, we are actually growing
brocolli. We have never done that!

We also have carrots coming in. Our beans look
like they got too cold one night and are wilty.
We might pull them and start over, this year is
all experiment with our green house and our crazy high altitude climate! We did plant really
early hoping the green house would protect our
crops! We'll see, the frost aren't even close to
being over with!

Gardening

Dave and I have been working really hard this Spring with our new garden. This year we decided to try gardening by the square foot with a green house on over. First we leveled ground, then we built wood frames, then we put down landscaping fabric, then we filled the frames with a special mix (no dirt). We planted, then covered the wood box frames with wire mesh and put a plastic on top for the green house effect! And wa-la, we already have plants gowing two week later. We have one bean sprout as of April 14th with lettuce and carrots coming up also!

Easter




I am creating my first blogspot! Here we are on Easter morning with the kids all dressed up and smiling. I love this photo just because we are all smiling and looking at the camera for the most part! Here are the kids doing what they do best; posing!
