The Sun is Starting to Shine





The old saying, April showers brings May flowers...we waited long and hard for some good sunshine in Oregon and the time has come.

We have been spending a good amount of time focusing on the yard and gardening this year - we have a mini-garden in the back yard and partially in the front with peas, beans, spinach, broccolini, squash, rhubarb, onions and many choices of herbs.   We've also spent a little time getting to get the yard looking a little better too.    So some of the pictures you will see were from our last trip to the nursery to pick up some shrubs and annuals for the front yard and our treat a fig tree!  

Noah is growing like a weed.   We had our first significant illness last week with a pretty good case of croup - I hope you never go through it.   If you have seen a barking seal at the zoo before, you will know what it sounds like.   He is feeling much better now and smiley as ever.   He is on the verge of crawling and loving his swimming lessons.

Happy Memorial Day weekend!
