This weekend...

... we planted our garden! :) Mark's parents came up for the day to help with the yardwork that Mark hasn't been able to do and I haven't been able to keep up with (!) and we planted the garden and lots of other fun outside-stuff!

Here are some photos from the event:

Isaac with Grandma, planting a row of sunflowers



My little focused planter (notice the tongue?!) who told me that when he grows up he wants to be a farmer (with chickens!), but asked, "Are you gonna be there, too, mama?"



My other little diligent planter, who told me she'd ALSO like to be a farmer but then when she had babies, she would just take care of them. :)


And after his nap, a whole new look!


After a long day of work, our farmers got a ride in the wagon with Grandpa pulling them!


ps: for those of you who have so kindly asked about and prayed for Mark, he is doing much better. Thank you for your prayers! God is definitely bringing healing to his arms and hands. Only his index fingers are still painful, but even those fingers are less sore than they were a few days ago. He will try to go back to work late this week. Thanks again for your concern and prayers!
