It Grew!

A few weeks ago the boys and I enjoyed a gardening for kids presentation with a mom's group that I am a part of. It was really cute and they ended the time with giving the kiddos pea seeds to plant. Sam was thrilled about planting his seeds and diligently watered his plant daily and looked for signs of life.

Now, it should be noted that I am not a green thumb. I have been known to kill many a plant and even succeed at killing a cactus at one point. I just don't have the skill to make things grow so I was hoping desperately that Sam's little seeds would grow despite my inability.

Fortunately out of the seven we planted one little shoot appeared today. Thank goodness. Sam was over the moon and wanted a little picture of him by his new plant.

Now let's see how long this one will survive (and if any more will appear). I am not holding my breath!

The kids always help me garden in the summer, we enjoy it so much. But, I like to garden, if you don't it would likely just be stressful. Love your little men! They are so beautiful.

Sun River and Portland for Mid Winter Break

Drew had a conference in Sun River OR this past winter and we made the call to tag along for a little vacation.  Things were slightly dampened by the fact that it appears Cole has developed car sickness since the summer. Ugh.  The drive was so long! However, it was worth it in the end and we had a wonderful time relaxing in an amazing little chalet, enjoying the snow, sitting in the hot tub, sledding and skating!  Couldn't have asked for more fun!  A stop at our favorite in Mt. Hood - El burro loco! A glass of wine after our 6 hour road trip turned into 10 hours due to car sickness!  Right before our Owl Walk.  We were told we could walk into the wood and hear the owls. What a bust!  3 cold and tired kids in the dark woods and no owls!  It's now a running joke in our home as the  tour guide kept 'hooting' trying to draw the owl's attention.  If we want someone's attention in the house we often hoot at each other now...
