    That lake and the mountains just beautiful. I’m sure the garden is going to be lovely and productive. I have about 5 raised beds for herbs and vegetables but this year I’ve added some marigold as well for a bit of colour. You have moose and I have possums that do their shopping in my backyard. Actually they do pretty well between my yard and my neighbours who has a massive vegetable garden. Great to see the boys helping out and having your dad’s help is always appreciated. Then a reward well earned , swim, paddle boarding , biking the area is great for kids

    You’re lucky your old soil must be good the next year. If I did that my plants would die. I know did it a couple of times. I have to dump the old soil in the wheelbarrow and mix new soil, compost and alfalfa pellets and put back in the containers then plant. Then water a lot to soften the alfalfa pellets. And then in this Memphis heat some don’t make it. Hope you have a wonderful garden. I know I’m watching old videos after I make a comment I remember. Lol

    Hi Lauren, wow, you, your dad and your husband with the boys help knocked that out. Well done everyone! It's funny how you said pumpkins are hard to grow and need the hothouse....over here in NZ pumpkins grow like weeds. I actually just chuck my seeds when cutting them into the compost heap, and some always grow and produce pumpkins. I love the cheddar caulis, and this year I also planted purple as well as white ones. 💜

A little team work, a little patience, a little sweat, a ton of Mosquito bites, a break, O, wait we forgot about this, a bike ride and swim, Glory Hallelujah the Garden is in....loved to watch Thanks for taking us along. It was so great to see all the Boys, they are getting so Big, they looked so Handsome with their new Haircuts. Hunter, you made Gary laugh on that Bike Ride, it just made his day, Thank you. Looks like you had a great time at Pioneer Days. And Lauren, it was such a delight to see Everett take his first plunge into the middle of the Lake. Everett was so Brave and Adventurous with his Armour. CANNON BALLS ARE AWESOME!!! Thanks for letting us be part of your Family. Gary and I are celebrating our 25th Anniversary this week.

    Well you talked about mosquitoes. I will tell you what I do to keep them away from my yards. You will need a container with a lid. I have a wood burning tool that heats up that has a pointed tip on it. I use that to make holes in lid big enough for the mosquitoes and flies to fit through. Or you can heat something on the stove to get hot to make the holes. I use a couple gallon ice cream containers. You mix 3 tablespoons of boric acid that you can get from Amazon. Not the boric acid to do your laundry. And 2 tablespoons of brown or white sugar and 3 tablespoons of baking yeast. Pour 3/4 full of warm water. Mix and hang in the shade under a tree away from your house. I do one for front and back of the house. They love the smell of the active yeast. Check it every week to see if you need to replace. I flush old water and bugs in the toilet due to the boric acid. Anyway it works.
