Happy Birthday Angela!  We had a little family celebration with presents and such this morning…

Tonight we had an awesome birthday party for Angela (and also Patrick Pocock who shares the same birthday (just like his wife Camille and I share the same birthday).  🙂  Our good friends the Stradlings from our old ward in Naperville were in town so they their family joined us, along with the Liddell family!  We had pizza and cake and had fun catching up with the goings on of the old ward (all 4 of our families were in the same ward in IL at one point).  🙂

It was fun to see all the kids together again having fun!  We sure do miss the families we left behind in Naperville!  It IS great, however, to have some of them now out here with us!  🙂

Our garden boxes are doing pretty well and are starting to yield a harvest!  Most of what we’re getting are cucumbers, zucchini and tomatoes.  🙂

The other things are growing a little slower but that’s to be expected.  The growing season here in Colorado is MUCH shorter than it was in Illinois so we have to stay right on it.  We can get freezes here up to Mother’s day, so the time to plant is right after that.  Great job on the garden Angela!  You rock!
