Finally Planted Garden

We finally planted our garden today. The strawberries survived the winter and a few bean plants sprouted from random beans that were tilled into the ground as we prepared the dirt. We planted potatoes, onions and carrots. There is also a picture of the leaves on our tree out front. We were concerned about the type of leaves on the tree until we figured out that the funny looking ones were seed pods. Our Christmas Tree that sprouted out of nowhere is growing great.

General Conference Trip

We took Magdalena to General Conference with us this year. Tori and Warren were able to go through the Salt Lake Temple which is always wonderful. We walked all over Temple Square, attended Conference in the Conference Center and even made a middle of the night trek to Wyoming.

Crazy Isaac

We went to a local nature fair in Riverside. They had a nature walk and a netted cage to see butterflies and several other animals. All Isaac cared about were the bugs. First he had to hold the tarantulas and scorpions. Then there were the stick bugs and the millipedes. He had a blast. Finally, the tarantula owner had to tell him that the spiders were taking a lunch break.

Baseball Game

The game was in San Diego. The Angels were playing against the Padres. It started a little slow but ended pretty well. Warren actually made it through the game.

Beach Trip

Some photos of a short jaunt to the beach. We were on our way to a wedding so there was some entertaining cleanup at the end.

Isaac on his bike

Then he progressed to starting on his own.

We are so excited. He is growing up so fast but he thinks it is "Awesome!".

Isaac's 5th Birthday Pictures

Here is a slide show of the professional pictures of Isaac for his 5th birthday.

 

2008 Garden

We started our garden last Saturday (16 Feb 08). All we did was turn over the dirt but it was a start.

Isaac without training wheels

You know you're getting old when your first child can ride their bike without training wheels. Isaac has been mentally preparing for this since he got his bike for his birthday. We finally had the chance to go outside and try last Saturday (16 Feb 08). This was truly exciting for all of us. (There are two videos in this set so if you double click on them they will open up in a new window. The videos have a little camera icon in the bottom left corner.)
