This last summer we had a garden. It turned out to be a very fruitful garden. We had pounds of tomatoes, peppers, and zucchini. We also had about 15 pounds of potatoes. Next year we are going to try our hand at canning. We are excited for the next spring when we can start again.
Having a garden leaves a lot of greens. Living on a quarter of an acre we naturally have a lot of grass clippings, and leaves. We had a box in the back yard that we used for compost but there is just too much stuff. So, this weekend I built something a little bigger. I am excited to get some waste in there and get it going.
I am sure you have played a rendition of “lava monster”. Well, the game has become a little complicated at our house. There are now different levels and magic items that can help you along. This is a picture of Weston wearing his “magic helmet” it slows the monster down, a “bracelet” that can freeze time, a pair of magic boots so you can walk on the lava, and last a key to make the rescue. I love that kid!

We did a rendition of this game for Westons superhero party. See Jenni’s blog for pictures.
