Croc-y

The UPS man just rang the doorbell and delivered the Sheets-family two new pairs of Crocs – a brand/style of footwear I had previously promised to NEVER buy.

I’m wearing them right now. Don’t mock ’em till you’ve tried ’em!

So tonight before our family-dinner out at Fazoli’s, we stopped in at Wal-Mart’s garden-shop and picked up this year’s garden-goodness!

After Ella’s bath and after she was down-for-the-count and Jess was over at Praise Team practice, I headed into the kitchen to begin my farming duties.

Here’s the rundown:

25 corn-pods.
6 pea-pods.
6 pepper-pods.
6 tomato-pods.
12 marigold-pods. (to keep the varmints out)
30 green bean-pods.
12 cucumber pods.

All were planted 2-seeds to a pod and with tender loving care by yours truly.

Now they sit in the back foyer and you can bet the web-world will be updated on their status frequently (when they sprout at least).

Here’s the farm so far:

Now if I can just get the rest of this snow to melt I can begin work on the seeds’ new home in our backyard!
