Thieves

Okay. I just have to vent for a moment because I'm really irritated. Why do people think that it's fun to steal other people's property? People typically work hard for the things they have and to have some idiots just come and completely disrespect that simple fact --that annoys me. We, and others in our neighborhood, had landscaping lights stolen over the weekend. It's not the material items that upset me so much as the fact that I feel a little less safe and I feel a little less trusting.

Gardens

The Past Couple Weeks

Since the weather has been so beautiful the past couple weeks, we've been outside when we aren't at work. We've got all of our flowers planted and our garden set. Some of the crops are starting to come up already and I'm so excited! It's such a great feeling to see what you planted growing. We scaled back the garden this year and I'm much happier with this arrangement. We created four different raised beds. This allows the soil to warm up quicker and thus you can plant earlier and it makes it much easier to weed. We had an enromous garden last year and it became a bit overwhelming. If all goes well, we'll have radishes and lettuce ready in a couple weeks and then in July and August, we'll have cucumbers, zucchinni, onions, tomatoes, green beans and carrots. We've also got an herb garden growing with lemon thyme, lavendar, rosemary, spearmint, and catnip for Woodrow.

We also went to the Columbus Zoo last weekend for our anniversary. It's probably been about 10 years since I've been to the zoo and longer for Isaac so we had a good time.
