Diggin' in the dirt....

That's what I did today. We finally got our deck cleaned up and organized for the spring, and I was able to plant my "vegetable garden" in the planters on the deck. Right now it just looks like some nicely arranged pots of dirt but just wait! Until I kill it all, let's pretend that I'm gonna actually have some success with this. Humor me, people.

Maddie and Brady had a lot of fun helping me sweep the deck off too. In addition to spilling bubbles and breaking a couple of my little plaster frogs. Brady is such a little brute! He is truly a bull in a china shop, everything he touches turns to dust.

We all just got up from a well-needed Spencer Family Nap, it was wonderful. I'm still wearing out really easily these days. I suppose that's normal for a little while too.

Glynn's about ready to hang some swings for the kids. It's a "surprise" that Maddie cannot wait for. I told her that after she got up from her nap, Daddy had a special surprise for her, and that's the first thing she did when she got up. She came down the stairs and ran into the bedroom, waking Glynn up by saying, "Did you have a nice nap, Daddy? Where's my surprise?"

I suppose I'd better help. This might involve power tools and I'll have to supervise. I need him to keep all of his fingers.
