Where've I been, what have I been doing? Well I've been right here, but I've been doing anything but sitting behind a computer.  We're still podcasting but even that's been hit and miss.

So one of the things that I've been doing is staying outside. When we first moved, I decided it was early enough to plant a vegetable garden. I planned out a 10x8 square and spent a few days digging it up. With a shovel. By myself.

The kids helped me haul away the hunks of grass by loading them up into their wagon and taking them to a low spot in our yard. Jer tilled up the soil and we planted several good eats such as peppers, tomatos, squash, watermelon, and a few other things. We're excited to finally see things growing! We're waiting for the "ripe" moment to harvest... Hah!

I've also been doing a lot of yard work other than the garden. Pulling weeds, mowing, and fighting off veggie eating bugs!

Now that it's too hot to be outside all day long, I hope to get a few more minutes in my day to blog. :)
