Its ah, its a... PUPPY!

On February 21st, we will be bringing home our new Golden Retriever puppy, Ellie. Isn't she a cutie?

 On February 1st, Daddy surprised the four little-ones with the annoucemant that we are going to go pick out our very own, genuine Golden Retriever puppy! 

Liana has aways wanted a dog, (a golden retriever dog to be specific) her whole entire life. But now, after many years of patience and prayer, Mommy and Daddy felt that the time has come.

Liana's reaction... priceless.

*Precious*

 We are all so thankful! Praise be to God!

Here is Emily trans planting a gourd plant that we started from seed.

Than one week later...

 

 

All of those larger plants, we bought at a nursery. 

Time for the worst part of it... Thinning.

 

 Remember this plant?

 That's all for now! I'll post more later.

God Bless y'all!

Happy Birthday Jaden!

Happy Birthday Jaden we love you sooooooo very much! I am so thankful God put you no to this family and as my little brother. I love you more than you know!

Your big sis Emy!

We're so excited that spring is here that we wet our PLANTS!

We are going to be keeping track of our garden progress... in pictures! So... once every single week on Monday morning, I (Caley) will take pictures of the garden. That way we can blog about it!

Lord willing, we will be posting a week by week update on our garden, weekly!

Lettuce start from the beginning, building the garden. Week one. :)

Thank you Daddy so much for helping us build the garden! We could not have ever done it without you. I love you Daddy!

Cutting the wood to size.

Emily!

This is the only picture of me while gardening, sadly. Oh well! I get to be the photographer too! :)

Done and ready for planting!

I love our little backyard homestead!

A sneak peak to the next post. Stay tuned!
