Spring has Sprung...Kinda!!!

We tried to get a family shot it didnt really workout!! ..lol

diggin away!!

:)

Ready to do some planting!! Notice there work gloves! :)

There is a story behind these gloves!! For Christmas my brother Nathan gave Tatum and Tripp lil kid work gloves they are so cute!! Well everyone except me had work gloves when we would work in the yard. Well when we were walking around homedepot Tatum saw these and was all "daddy look gloves for mommy mommy needs gloves like me and bubba and you huh daddy" and cody was just like yeah yeah and kept going well when we got home there were the gloves she had thrown them in the cart and cody never pays attention what hes buying when hes checking out and im pretty sure she know that!!..lol...but its so freakin cute that she thought of me and wanted me to be part of the family and not be left out buy not having gloves! Love my baby girl she is my best friends melts my heart everyday!!

The new finds we found at home depot..lol

And here is why im really excited hiding behind all the dead my vines are starting to come back!! So happy they are so cute and colorful when they are all alive and bloomed and they are starting to come back finally!! :)

Love my flowerpots on my back porch they are so pretty!!

The lemon tree blooms are so pretty not sure how it all works like are we gonna have as many lemons as there are blooms still researching all my gardening stuff because if thats the case we will have lemons coming out of our ears there are a ton of these on that tiny tree!!!

Our dwarf lemon tree so cute and is just blooming away!!! It smells soo....good!!!! I wished it just bloomed all year cause it smells so freakin good!!!

Tatum and Cody planting onions pretty sure they planted oh like 60 lol.....

So fun I had no idea how these things started out!!

Love Target!! And love Targets Doller bin right now its full of fun spring stuff and they had these starter flower pot kits last time i in was there so of course I bought Tatum some!! She had so much fun putting them together and planting the seeds!

They now sit out front on a window!! And everyday she goes out there and waters them and asks me "mom are my flowers done yet?" when they dont work im gonna have to sneak some in there one morning just so shes not disappointed in her planting job!!!

Codys mom gave me this flower pot hanger for Christmas Cody thought it would be fun to change it up and instead of flowers to do strawberries which is way cute cause its has lil white flowers on it and it if grows it will have big lucious strawberries hanging from it! so cute sitting on the front porch gets plenty of sunshine!!

Hopefully in a few weeks or I dont know how long we will have yummy strawberries!

I love my Tree circles!! Ever year me and Tatum just plant flowers in the spring and they just take off and are so pretty all summer long I love them!! Its mine and Tatums lil thing we do together we pick out which flowers together and plant them together and she picked out really pretty ones this year!!

The finished garden!!! Tiny I know.. We do have a big yard that could totally fit a normal looking garden lol but I was not about to let Cody dig up any of my grass for this experimentental garden so we will see how it does in this lil area this year!! :)

Some of the herbs we planted!

Our tiny lil corn we planted!!

Watching the plane!!

The CropDuster when it first came I called Cody and said that some crazy private plane was trying to do some tricks behind our house and hes all no im sure its a crop duster go look... sure enough!!..lol

It was like a free airshow for me and the kids they love planes we watched him for like 2 1/2 hours im not kidding!!..lol we are easily entertained



I dont think anyone understands how close this plane was to our house I could have thrown a rock and hit it! It was crazy!!

How cute is she in bowling shoes!! Adorable!!

Lets get this started people!! she was so excited!!!



I love this pic she is totally like "come on come on all I need is a spare!!!"

Grandpa was nice enough to give up his spot a few times (pretty much everytime if you know Tripp he has to have his way) to let bubba give it a shot!!

Too cute!!

So big!! Hate it Hate it!! how is she big enough to bowl seriously what the freak happen!!!

Love it!!!

I love Spring time!!..For some reason our house is in some random cold spot in this desert place that we live in and the few times that it does get cold enough here to freeze everything in my pretty lil yard freezes!!!...and all our hard work is just wasted and im sad for like weeks over it beacuse i have to stare at all my dead plants!!..But its finally that time again and everything is starting to come back!!! So about a week ago the 4 of us went to our favorite place Homedepot!! and loaded up on needed yard stuff to help boost it back to life and we decided to grow a garden this year so excited!! We seriously live in our backyard we love it its so fun its like our lil family hobby thing I guess that we do always working on it and all the stuff that we do back there!! I guess another sign that spring is here is the other morning me and Tatum almost jumped out of our skin when we thought a plane was crashing into our house but when we went and climbed onto the playhouse we discovered that it was just a cropduster taking care of the fields behind our house which was so fun you would think the 3 of us had never seen a plane before we sat up there all morning and had our breakfast and watched him it was so fun!!..Lets so what else have we been up too...! We went to the zoo with Codys good friend Zack and his Finacee and her daughter no pics but it was good time Tatum made herself a new buddy and Im pretty sure Tripp found himself a girlfriend he loved her!! :) Sunday we went out and had a lil family dinner with the kiddos which freakishly went very smooth we dont do that very often but it went really good and then we rolled over to the bowling alley and celebrated Chad and Alexs Bday!! It was Tatums first time bowling and she had so much fun!! She killed it I wanna say she almost ended up having the same score as her daddy!!! :) it was alot fun to get together with everyone it had been awhile since we had seen everyone!!

All day everyday everywhere we went she told everyone its Gunners Birthday...Happy Day Gunner!!(for some reason she said Happy Day instead of Happy Birthday which I think is just adorable)..I mean this has gone on forever!!...I finally got her to understand that it wasnt Gunners Birthday but that it was coming up so then she started saying " Its Gunners Birthday..not yet!!!"..lol..the girl cracks me up love her!!..So finally today was Gunners real Birthday!! He turned 4 years old! So of course Tatum had to throw him a party not a just a party but a Surpirse Party she loves Surprise Parties ever since we had one for my dads 50th on New Years Eve! So we went into town and her and Tripp picked him out presents and balloons, yes balloons of course its a party...we made him cupcakes we did it all!!...It was so cute cause the enitre drive home she was so excited to give Gunner his balloons and yell surprise...so when we got home and let him into the house she screamed "SURPRISE" and started singing to him and clipped his balloons on to him and danced around him it was adorable it was so stinkin cute!!!..I just love my kids they had so much fun celebrating his Birthday he is one loved dog!!!
