Some things going on.

So Mark was waiting for a meeting the a week or so ago and decided he would climb the tree. As you can see below, Alex copied him. We had Mark's family here last Memorial Day weekend. Mark and Jon and Joseph climbed the tree again and made it to the top. We didn't do it with anyone else here, since these are the lighter of the boys. The other guys, I'm sure could do it, but our tree may not have looked as nice after.
Here is Grandma with Brigham, showing her something.
Lissie playing on the tramp with Grandpa. And that's all we got for pictures. Yes we were lame in taking pictures. We did have a blast however. Most everyone came up Saturday (except Mark's parents the night before0. We went to Big Juds, where my brother in law ate the whole hamburger and 1/8th. We went to the cave, we played games, outside, had lots of good food and enjoyed lots of company, celebrated a birthday etc. Danny and Haley were the only ones unable to attend for obvious reasons. We were so glad everyone came to visit us and hang out with us. The kids enjoyed playing immensely with their cousins and I think the only times they were apart was when we were sleeping. Thanks for all who came.
The next adventure we have done over the last few weeks is the garden. We rented a rotatiller and made our plot. We then found out our neighbors had one and we used theirs, which was better, and finished the job.
We planted corn, radishes, beets, and lettuce.
Then watered.
Yesterday we went and got a bunch of starters to go in our garden. Alex and Brigham digging holes.
Lissie following suit.
Just like Dad. We are excited- we have lots of tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, peppers and for the kids sake, tried one watermelon ;0). We are excited and hope to have some fruits from all of this.

Doesn't it freak you out that your boys are climbing trees like that? I think I'm going to be too overprotective as a mother. The garden looks very good! Yummy! :O)
