Trying to Soak up Some Fun.

These past two weeks we have been trying to enjoy the sun because we knew the upcoming weeks were going to be filled with clouds and rain. Looking back now I'm glad we tried to squeeze in as much "sun fun" as we did because this week has been wet! Mother's Day weekend we started our Garden. We have three different tomato plants and three peppers for Garrett and his salsa. We have half a garden box of Strawberries, which we plan on making lots of strawberry jam. We also planted peas, carrots, and green onions from seed. We want to do some lettuce so we can do our own salads this summer. I'm hoping we can learn how to make homemade spaghetti sauce too. YUM!
We did sneak in a small four wheeler ride and I actually rode with AJ on my new bike. It was fun, but I wish I could just relax and ride instead of shifting and thinking of how to stop before I have to.
Madison had two more tball games. She is doing so good and its fun to watch the kids having so much fun. And thankfully the weather was nice for these two games. It just makes it so much more fun. She does have two games this week, Thursday and Saturday, but I'm pretty sure the Thursday game will be canceled due to rain.
This is her last week of school. She Graduates next Tuesday, the 24th. Got her teacher a thank you gift and almost started crying while telling her how thankful we are for her. God Bless our teachers!
Not much in store for this weekend since its raining. Saturday looks nice so I'm sure we will be out in the yard all day. Can't wait for warmer weather so we can start camping :)

Glad you had had time to soak up some fun, before the wet weather moved in.
