Where does the time go? It has been over a month since I last posted. Life has been hectic lately. The lady that does payroll in our office is on maternity leave and even though she trained somebody else to fill in, guess who is being roped in constantly to help out? Lucky me. It is calming down somewhat. Our schools have spring break this week so I am able to do alot to catch up while everyone is gone. Our local high school had their 15 minutes of fame this week. The marching band has been in Ireland to march in the St. Patrick's Day parade and the Today Show is in Ireland also. They were the only American band featured on the show by Al Roker. It was pretty cool to watch.
The girls have been enjoying this spring like weather we have had. We have been riding bikes, playing at the park, and flying kites. The kites lasted one evening. Bella's princess kite crashed on our roof and broke and Maya's Barbie kite is stuck at the top of one of our huge trees in our back yard. Maybe Daddy needs to take them to an open field next time. Jake is getting all pumped up about his garden. He is planting several things, but one is corn and he said he is putting in 126 plants! Does that seem a little excessive for a family of four? lol! So if you like corn let us know.

Ah! Corn. You just can't have too much. Let's see ... 126 plants w/ maybe two ears each is 256 ears. Are we talking about sweet corn? Let's see... 256 / 4 = 64 ears each, a little more than one a week for the whole year. Don't forget the butter!
ReplyDeleteGardens are really fun. We're planning an upgrade to ours. We've got about $250 in it so far and nothing to show for it but a 3 cubic yards of 'special soil' in the driveway and a lot of work to do.
Hope to see you all soon (when we get the crops in).
Love you all,
