Urban Farmer

Our new neighbors seem to think that we should have stayed in Nebraska because Clayton is turning into quite the "urban" farmer. This year at school they planted a pumpkin seed and he's been tending it faithfully since before Mother's day. This little plant made a 300 mile car ride to Kansas City and WOW has it grown!

They had extra pea plants at school so thinking originally that it wouldn't make it a week at home I picked one up too. So here we are a whole month in a half later eating peas off that plant! Clayton is so proud he can't wait to send Ms Becky

pictures.

Happy Birthday Tyler

Yesterday was Tyler's birthday. Wow how do they grow up fast! Tyler is turned 11 this year and that means that he is officially a pre-teen. Any word that includes "teen" is scary!

He had all of his old friends over and his cousing and grandparents. We had a beach theme party and they got to swim at the pool, a pinata, and beachy cupcakes. They had lots of fun!

Did you ever wonder what the inside of the stovetop looks like?

If you were ever wondering what the inside of a smooth top stove looks like, here you go.

Yikes! Don't every drop a large acrylic cup on the glass. This was the stove that came with the house and boy was I MAD when I broke it. Luckily the other 3 burners and the oven works so we have been making due.

My husband loves me enough to let me purchase a new stove as long as I continue to make tasty dinners on it. Not to big of a price to pay!!! Thanks hon!
