Happy Petit Moussaillon



Happy Valentine's Day!!


Last Thursday, we made a heart shape suncatcher for Eva's bedroom window.


And on Tuesday, we've tasted Susan's delicious heart cookies.


Partying and bicycling at Margot and Lance's house.


Hard to catch Margot and Lance up with that little tricycle.

Our Backyard Project (Part III)


It is our third week-end of gardening. Time to plant. 





Planting the red peppers


Calendula flowers


Peppers


Radishes (for Papy). We also planted a row of carrots and some nasturtium flowers (capucines).


Broccolis


Lolla Rosa Lettuce


Peas


Buttercrunch Lettuce


Spinach


Almost done! 



A little bit of teasing for Dad.


Soon, we'll plant some watermelons, and zucchinis!! Next, we have to put the drip system and some garlic for pesticide control.

Rough and Soft Heart


Draw a heart


Punch a hole


Put a feather in it. 

The Farm

Since we needed more soil for our raised-bed garden, we drove to a farm. We found lots of interesting things.


We saw chicken and horses





Lots of vegies growing here and there.


And some muffins, olive bread and organic broccolis and lemons.


It is a very inspiring place.


I think these are squashes growing over a dead branch.



Barry talking to the cowboy.


There we go, 2 bags of 120 lbs of dirt in the trunk.
