*sounds of tape coming off the wall in the next room*
Lee: "Uh Rejie? Are you taking your potty chart off the wall?"
*sounds of poster being smoothed back onto the wall*
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. ~Proverbs 3:5-6

Our Little Plot of Earth
I spent weeks trying to learn exactly what to do and when with my little plot of dirt at the community garden. I'm bound and determined to not only grow stuff, but grow them efficiently. Well, after all that research, I have settled on the Haphazard Gardening Method. For those of you unfamiliar with this form of gardening, it involves saying "forget it" to all the planning and just putting seeds in the dirt and putting water on it. I plan to continue watering it and see what happens.
The kids really enjoyed the walk to the garden and I even managed to get Rejeanne to listen to me! I actually got a two year old to understand "walk around, not on" the other people's gardens!! I consider that a minor miracle, especially since Rejeanne tends to not be particularly obedient when you really need her to be! Cyrus slept most of the time and then just chilled in the stroller babbling at us the rest of the time. He's a pretty mellow little guy. Lee's planting was less haphazard than mine, so we shall see who prevails!
While I'd love to enjoy the flowers and veggies and fruits we planted, I'll be impressed if the stuff will even put off a couple leaves. I'm not known for a green thumb, that much is certain!

One of my Favorite Things
Scott's Birthday BBQ
Since Scott had his birthday party the day before Easter, we had an impromptu Easter egg hunt at the park.

It's kinda shadowy, but I love this pic of Brenda and her girls. Hopefully she won't mind me splattering it on the internet!
We all had a great time! Nothing like enjoying Spring a month earlier than last year and enjoying it with friends!

Crimzoni and the Bonkasaurus
I LOVE LOVE LOVE hanging out with Crimson and her friend Bianca! They are so hilarious when they are together. Not only that, but I learn something new about Bianca every time!
We went to the Pavilion in Sioux Falls to check out the science center they have for the kiddies up there. Here's what I learned about Bianca:
1. She can make a near perfect imitation of a semi-truck horn
2. She prefers grilled cheese to pizza.
3. She has to pee as often as I do.
4. She can make a rad dino face:

5. She takes great photos!

6. She's an awesome friend


I so miss that "best friends" comradery from the elementary school days. There just isn't time for all that when you're grown! It's just a different kind of thing once ya grow up I guess.
