Let's rUmBLe!!

We've been having lots of gloomy weather lately, so on Fri (5.20.11) Jill and I took the kiddos to rumble park in Cody. Its a huge ware house full of big blow up things for the kids to jump and slide on. The first time I ever went was with Michael and we were the only ones there, but not this time! It was packed and it made the little kids a little nervous but everyone had fun anyway.

picnic

Lately Michael's been working a lot of 12 hr shifts, so he's either gone all day or home all day. We mostly prefer the home all day. :) On one of his days off we had a picnic in our front yard and I just wanted to share! We had egg salad sanwiches (Michael made them, delish) apple slice and chips.

Michael plants our garden

I'm thankful that Michael comes from a family with a rich background in farming/gardening/canning, etc. because it makes it easier for me to do my part. He really likes it and plans way in advance and gets the job done right. A couple of weeks ago Michael went to his dad's farm to get a load of manure and brought it back and spread it all over the garden and then tilled it in a few times. Then we (mostly him) planted our seeds (those green things are our onions coming back) and pretty soon here we'll plant our tomatoes and melons. I think we'll get beter at this gardening thing every year, but I think the best way to do learn how to do something is to just do it, so thats what we're doing. Hooray Michael for being such a great gardener. :)
