Soccer, Swimming, and Gardening

So besides having a new baby, we've been up to a few other things! Eli started soccer about a month ago. Unfortunately, 3 out of his 4 practices have been canceled due to heavy rain and it looks like his second of four games is going to be canceled as well. Hmm do you think I'll get a refund? Probably not. I just feel bad for him, because he's been really excited about it and then it keeps getting canceled!

 The week Eli started soccer, Connor and Anna also started swim lessons! Our neighborhood pool opens Memorial Day weekend, so I thought it would be good to brush up their skills before that. Anna is getting more comfortable in the water and Connor is back to being able to swim on his own! They've both made a lot of progress in the last 4 weeks and we have 2 more to go.

 All ready to go!

We also started working on our garden! We made a couple garden boxes to go on the side of our house this year. We planted some leeks, peas, onions, and spinach and will plant more in a few weeks when the weather is warmer. I also planted lavender, oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, chives, and green onions in my pots on the back patio. Yum-o!

 And our strawberries we planted last year are thriving!!! I'm so excited!

 A red one! I can't wait.
