Look what's sprouting up ...

Sam's Garden

!!!

We stopped by Grandma's Saturday 

and took a peek at Sam's garden!

He has a bell pepper and a jalapeno!

everything is growing

There should be squash and cauliflower soon

he was so excited

asking Grandma if the strawberries are doing okay

and looking for buds on the squash and the cauliflower

he just seems so concerned and so proud of it all

{I can hardly stand how cute he is}

Then we all jumped in the car and went to Zona Rosa 

for some Yogurtini

Grandpa had never been, so we couldn't wait to take him.

When I was young, mom and John used to take us to

TCBY {the countrys best yogurt} all the time.

It was a family thing that we did often

It was a delicious evening

Gardening with Grandma

My mom had this great idea,

she wanted to help the boys start

their very own garden

She set up a little area in her yard

and asked the boys what they would like to grow

maybe some things that they would really like to eat

They decided on strawberries,

cauliflower, jalapeno peppers

squash and bell peppers

They all were surprisingly excited

talking about how they can't wait to watch it all grow

and to be able to pick and eat their own food.

I love this for so many reasons:

such sweet time spent learning with Grandma

so good for them to weed, water & take care of their own plants

it's super cool for them to learn to be resourceful

It's what memories are made of
Thanks for being so awesome, Mom!

Grandpa even got in on a little of the action!
