Gardening

So we started planting in our garden this Sunday, and did some more today.

A friend gave us this herb growing kit, so we did that.


Parsley, marjoram and chives.  

We put them in these bags so the sponge things they're growing in stay moist.


American backyard.  Clothes on the line, gardens, and white picket fences.


Melissa has her herb garden again this year.


Parsley and lavender from last year.



We started doing composting differently:  in a wire cage like this instead of a box on the ground, so it is kept away from animals, and has more air circulation.  Something like that.

Ellie's Birthday Party

Here are some photos from my 15th birthday party.  

We went to the downtown part of Carrollton, and had a photo scavenger hunt in the antique store there.  Melissa did a really good job organizing it all.



We had to take a photo with a photo that looked remotely like you.
