Time to Plant the Peas!





What a beautiful weekend! We spent it getting the yard ready for spring. Our tulips are looking like they are going to bloom in another week and we have some crocuses already blooming. I love this time of year! It was Sophia's first time playing in the yard and garden. Last year of course she was just a newborn. She loved being outside today. I think she is going to take after Jim with being 'outdoorsy' but I don't know if she is going to like gardening yet. She might be like me. It is yet undecided. She did enjoy picking up leaves and grabbing handfuls of mulch. She was curious about the soil but didn't really get her hands into it. She did like planting the peas. The plants might be a little close together in some spots but I think it will be fine. After we finished all of the yard work (um, Jim finished all the yard work) we played with bubbles and sidewalk chalk in the driveway. Some neighbors stopped by while they were on walks and played as well. It was a great evening. I love it when we have people stop by!
