Spring helpers

We are having a great spring and loving this beautiful weather. The kids can't get enough of playing outside and Jeremy and I love it as well.

This past weekend we decided to freshen up our mulch. The kids always love to help with projects. I went to the store and got them some shovels and their own wheelbarrow. They were actually really good helpers. It took about 3 hours to get it done and they helped for atleast 2 1/2 hours of that.







We also thought we would try our hand at planting a "garden." This year our garden will consist of strawberries planted on the mounds in our back yard and carrots, cabbage, and lettuce planted in boxes on the back porch. We also bought seeds for pumpkins and may try watermelon.



We have a pretty bush that blooms in the spring and I just love the flowers. Kaylie of course loved posing for a few pictures. :)




My mom and grandma came to visit at the beginning of the week. We always have a great time when they come visit us. On Monday we went to Miami Whitewater State Park in Cincinnati. We took a hike, played on the playground, rented a 4 person bike, and had a picnic lunch. It was a fun day!
