Today girlie asked if we could make some cinnamon swirl bread to go with our homemade grape preserves we made yesterday. Of course I had to say yes.

Squash seedlings
They are getting bigger. Yipee! I think they’ll be ready to plant by next weekend.
African Iris
I found this little beauty blooming in our yard this morning.
They’re sprouting!
After 5 days, the peas have started to sprout!
It’s amazing how it works. You put a little seed in a bit of soil and the seed just grows.
Starting seeds
Today we started our first batch of seeds. We placed these pellets in a tray then added water and waited for them to absorb the water. We got these at Lowe’s, but you can get them at any garden center. Then we placed the seeds in.
Now we wait for them to sprout!
Flowers
Flowers for me.
We’re starting our 2012 spring garden
Today we dug in the dirt, pulled weeds, and turned the soil to get our garden ready. I absolutely LOVE digging in the Earth with my family. This will be our 2nd year with a garden and the kids are very much a part of the whole process.
Thomas the TIller and kids helping.
Bring on the seedlings.
Puddle jumping in Savannah, GA
Pickle and I spent the day in Savannah, GA. It was stormy and there were several tornado warnings. I didn’t want to drive in storm, so we stayed for a while and went antique shopping. We were the crazy ones jumping in puddles and taking pictures of our reflections.
It was REALLY hard to resist jumping in the all puddles.
