The Graduate

Trevor officially graduated from high school! We're super proud of him. Can't believe this is happening already. It's crazy how fast time flies.
Also, as a graduation gift I had a quilt made from old tee shirts saved from throughout his childhood. He really liked it.

Runner

Griffin had a good running season. He improved his times by quite a bit. At his last race the 1500 he ran it in 4:35

Goodbye 8th grade

First Day/Last Day

Growing

Something that I enjoy that makes me feel happy is growing things. Our backyard was a blank canvas when we moved in. We've been on a tight budget, and haven't been able to to a ton, but I have been adding plants when I could. Today I picked up a rosebush and a peony bush to add to the mix. So far I've planted
2 lilac bushes
2 white Dogwood trees
2 white Jasmine
1 bleeding heart
1 hydrangea
1 larkspur

I've also got some sweet peas growing & some hollyhocks.
There's also a few flower pots with random flowers too. It sounds like a lot, but I need a lot more filler plants and then some fun garden decor. It's nice sitting out there. Someday it will be amazing sitting out there.
