Mother's Day And Planting

Merrilee thinks mommy had a wonderful Mother's Day!

First, Merrilee gave mommy a very special picture book with lots of pictures from their first nine months together. It's a fancy "brag book" for mommy.

Then, daddy gave mommy a nice new Flipcam, so that she can take lots of videos for this blog.

Then, it was off to church...

After church, we had a nice family brunch at our favorite local restaurant.

Then, later in the afternoon, we made trips to Home Depot and Lowe's to buy some plants.

Once we all got home, Merrilee helped daddy plant herbs, marigolds, and impatiens. One of Merrilee's chores this summer will be to keep all of the plants watered. She loves going from planter to planted with her watering can. And she loves using her trowel and putting on her gardening gloves...

We're really looking forward to summer together!
