Stay Tuned...
We are preparing for our first international adventure and Austen's first plane ride! So excited to have this opportunity as a family and for our kids to experience a new culture. What's really awesome is my bilingual boy will be able to interact with everyone. I tried initiating conversations with Gavin this weekend so I can try to speak in Spanish better, but after a few sentences I couldn't understand Gav lol. Guess I should had started that sooner...

Green Thumbing It
Oh my goodness, our pot garden (still can't get enough of that one) is flourishing. This week we are harvesting green onions and snow peas.
Our watermelon, tomato plant, green beans, and red pepper area now seedlings. The summer squash plant is huge, may need to transplant that. We planted artichoke last week (you should google the pretty flowers they can become), but the prized possession is our avocado plant. Oh yes! I finally got a seed to sprout, and I've tried all methods of getting it to germinate. What eventually worked was removing the outer brown shell and planting it in the dirt. It took 2 1/2 months but is worked :-) Stay tuned for more pictures
Happy Gardening!
