I love spring. Summer used to be the only season I really liked at all. It's still my favorite, but as I've gotten older I have learned to appreciate spring and autumn much more.
I have ordered some things for our garden via the internet. I haven't ever ordered such things from the net or bought them and had them delivered via postal mail. I'm anxious to see how the plants look when they arrive. This is what I bought:
- 6 Big & Plenty Tomato Plants
- Sugar on the Cob Corn - seeds
- 6 Earliglow Strawberry Plants
- Carrot seeds
- Sunflower seeds
- Quicklawn seeds (my front lawn needs grass!!!!)
I bought these items from Gardener's Choice . I didn't pay any more than I if I would have bought these items from Lowe's or WalMart. The website looks promising, doesn't it? I'll let you know how this years garden goes. Remember last year? I broke my foot planting a cucumber plant!  Savanah planted three watermelon seeds in a pod planter and it's already sprouting. However, we plan to plant more than I've listed here. Now, we just need to rent a tiller..........
My two older daughters are taking an art class by Barry Stebbing, creator of the How Great Thou Art , art curriculum. Alyssia (12) is really enjoying it. Savanah (8) is enjoying it some. It think if she were older, she'd like it a lot more. She really liked it today when Mr. Stebbing gave her an A+ on her homework! Neither child has had any art instruction from me. We have checked out the "Draw Write Now" books from our library and they did like those. I have a feeling that Alyssia will be asking for some art curriculum next year......... |
