A Pretty Bird and Garden Planting Day!

I am so far behind on blogging now. We have had lots going on around here the past few weeks so I just haven't had a minute to blog. Anyhow, I am going to attempt to get caught up again. The next few posts will be mostly pictures of what we have been doing.

We had this pretty little yellow bird visit our feeders one afternoon. He hung out for quite awhile and I snapped a few pictures. These were taken through the window though so they are a little fuzzy. Anybody know what kind of bird this is?























We were finally able to plant the garden Easter weekend!! Here is Randy getting ready to plant.


Grandpa even joined us outside to supervise our planting.
Ian was helping add the fertilizer into the holes before we added the plants.


He took a break to get a sip of water!

Aaron came out to help too!





Some of our plants waiting to be put into the garden.

Grandpa got tired of sitting in the truck so he got out to sit in the chair for a bit.



We worked until dark but we got it all planted.

Your pretty little yellow bird is a male Goldfinch! He is so pretty! We have been studying backyard birds since the winter and we have seen these around our house. Your garden looks awesome! We have some potted patio plants and they are growing nicely. I can't wait to slice up some fresh tomatoes and cucumbers. MMM!
