Being Self Reliant





Last year we had a nice little garden that wasn't much to look at, but this year I might have let my ambition take over! We have a wonderful garden with, zucchini, crook-neck and patti-pan squash, cucumbers, bell-peppers, honey-dew and seedless watermelon, Garrett's corn, 4 different types of tomatoes (6 plants), yellow baby bell-peppers, habanero and jalapeƱo peppers, sweet-butter lettuce, cilantro, chives and basil. WOW we are enjoying everything and are being blessed with a great harvest with allot more to come. Most importantly, Lily and Garrett really like the garden and go out every day to see if we have something new to pick, which has been a great lesson in self-reliance for them. We will keep you posted on how we finish the summer! Hope everyone is doing well!

Lake Naci




Thank you first to our good friends, Doug and Joddy, we were able to spend a beautiful out at Lake Nacimiento. It was Lily's first time on a boat but she was such a trooper.

Garrett loved the tube and most certainly his favorite part was when Doug let him drive the boat. That little guy is such a nut for motorize equipment!

We look forward to a few more trips out to the lake this summer!
