Pudding faces...Yummy!

Nick and Stevie always like to see grandpa!

I have always found it interesting that my children have never just fallen alseep. They would only sleep in their bed. Well, one day we took to long outside and I guess Steven got 'tired" of waiting for us. He fell asleep at the top of the stairs. He had gone up to get some chips that Nick had brought up earlier. He couldn't get back down so he must have just laid there and cried himself to sleep. Poor kid!

Nicholas on the other hand, can pretty much fall asleep anywhere and in any position! I always find it funny the positions you will find him in. He is so bendable! I went to wake him up from a nap one day and this is how I found him. He looks so uncomfortable, but he is sound alseep!

Gypsy Samantha

Sami lost 2 teeth in one evening! She is not even 5 yet!

For about a week, Sami's thing was to wear a bandana and dress up. I told her she looked like a gypsy!

Our Veggie garden

Well, we tried our hand at a garden this year. We planted carrots, corn, green and yellow beans, scallions, broccolli, peppers, tomotoes, summer squash and zucchini. Oh and some giant pumpkins. The carrots, scallions, zucchini and squash did really well. The pumpkins seeds washed away shortly after they were planted. The corn, which was too tough for my taste, was eaten and trampled by the farmers cows. They saw the grass is greener on the other side! I guess the corn is too! Our tomotoes were plagued. So Jason had to pull the plants up and burn them. But all that has not deterred us. We have made out garden bigger and already planted garlic. We are going to try pumpkins again. We would like to get enought to sell next year. We are planning on cutting our squash plants down....to one plant each!! We will try tomotoes again. Hopefully, we will have better luck! And we are going to try a different type of corn. The kids are already looking forward to planting another garden.
