Our Garden

This year we are attempting to plant a garden. We don't really know what we are doing so hopefully something will grow. About a month ago we took out some grass and made a spot for our garden and tilled the soil. On Saturday we planted our plants and seeds. This year we planted tomatoes, carrots, corn, beans, bell peppers, jalapeno peppers, zucchini, asparagus, and broccoli.

Baker Family Reunion

This past weekend we got together with Nate's family. His grandparents, parents and all of his siblings got together and stayed a very nice big house in midway. It was a lot of fun to spend time with family. The house had 8 bedrooms, a theater room, game room with air hockey and a pool table, and a hot tub. We enjoyed watching conference together and on Sunday morning some of Nate family that are from California were able to attend a session at the conference center. Nate's mom also brought up all the kids their easter presents and they had an easter egg hunt. It was a lot of fun.

On Tuesday after we had to leave the house, we went to temple square and walked around and had a tour of the conference center. I had been there before for a session but Nate and the girls never have. It is amazing how large and beautiful that building is.








This is a view from the very last row.



Rocky

About a month ago our cat Rocky came home one day with a broken tail. We are not sure how he broke it or what we should do for it. He was acting ok, and after paying for two of our kids to have ear tubes we did not want to put out any money on our cat. About two weeks ago (Yes I am a little behind in my posting) our cat Rocky came back home after being gone for a week. I was not home when some neighbor kids brought Rocky to our door. When I got home Nate had said that Rocky came home and his tail had fallen off. Before bed I went to check on Rocky in the garage and looked at his tail. To my suprise his tail had stiches in it. This explained where he had been but also brought many more questions to my mind, like who would take out cat to the vet to have his tail fixed. This is still a mystery so if it was you or someone that you know please tell them thank you for us. The girls are very glad that Rocky is home.
