Spring is for: Flowers, Mowing and Puppies (we hope)

This video is kinda long but pretty funny. After Ricky was done mowing the lawn for the first time this year he gave the kids a ride. Chase is actually driving!

While Ricky tilled the garden I started the task of transplanting flowers to the beds in front of the house.

I didn't get very far but it's a start. I'm going to try and "recycle" as many plants as I can from different spots to try and save money on landscaping. If you can't tell, those are daffodils that I moved. I can't wait till my tulips start blooming, they are very close. As is my magnolia tree right out front.

I always love sitting at the dining room table and having the nice view of this blossoming bush, it looks more like a bush than a tree.

After Ricky finished tilling the garden I had to stand on a board on the back of the mower so we could smooth the whole thing out. My arms are so sore from it now! We are going to make the garden half the size of last year so I think next weekend Ricky will seed part of it. And I'll be able to plant my onions next weekend.

Yesterday I took Penny to a Mennonite neighbor's to get bred. Hopefully she gets pregnant this time. The last time she had her heat she didn't get pregnant and the guy I took her to this time said, "I'm not very good at this and I'm not going to guarantee anything". Yikes, I really would like to have another liter to sell it's been almost a year since our last one. So now Blondie is an "only dog" (Mishti is still living with Ricky's parents) and very lonely. Chase has been trying his best to make her feel better though.

He's such a loving, caring little boy. Well I think that's all the exciting news for now. Happy Easter!!!
