In the Yard

On Saturday we made a trip to Home Depot in an effort to spruce up our yard a little bit. We have a big planter box that's been in the works, but we also wanted some bird feeders and a pretty flower pot for the patio. We had no idea what flowers to get or how to arrange them in the pot, so we kind of guessed. It seemed to work out just fine. It looks nice and hopefully everything will survive! It feels so good to have my hands in the dirt planting things. It's seriously a lot of fun to me. Especially when Seth is with me and Rae is helping us:)



We read that humming birds are year round here and if you make the nectar extra sweet the first few times, more will come!

I'm excited to have birds to watch with Raegan. Whenever she hears them singing outside she looks at me and says "whats that?...tweet tweet?!?" then runs to the window and shouts "HIIIII" and waves so hard! Hopefully now we'll have lots and lots of birds to say hi to:)

This tiny bird was our first visitor to the new feeder! We are counting on him to spread the word.
