A Slow Sunday

Yesterday was a beautiful day...about 75 degrees with a breeze. We probably should have been hard at work building something since it's my hubby's only day off, but instead we played. I think we should do more of that.

First we looked for one of those digital thingies now that we are one of 8 million without television. Of course, you can't buy them anywhere. I don't even care. The boob tube is overrated.

Then we went out to Risse's Greenhouse for seed potatoes. I realize I could have used the ones growing in the pantry, but this is more fun. Of course, I forgot to take photos of the beautiful greenhouses (there are 10+ of them!), but the kids loved it.

On the way back in to town I took a few photos of some farmland along Chena Hot Springs Road for Lori at Skoog Farms.

The clouds were just amazing.

If you make the photo bigger you can see the herd of horses.

We stopped at Ballaine Lake to let the little ones ride their bikes. They had so much fun.

Lucas rode the trike with the bent handle bars...he just can't quite reach the peddles on his new bike.

The wild roses are blooming like crazy everywhere we go. Here's the corner of the property (Daisy's house is in the background).

I need to pick some for jelly, but I'm having an issue finding free time to do it.

Olivia helped plant Calwhite potatoes. I'm trying trenches for this bed.

It's finally starting to get green around the house.

We've had a lot of fun the last two days finding big ants under the rocks and feeding them to the chickens. It hilarious how fast they are snatched up. He's such a good Daddy.
Last night we went down to the elementary school to play. There was a lot of laughing going on.

At 11:00pm last night I started watering the garden beds. The sun was still shining brightly on the tops of the trees.
