Swimming and Gardening

So, my little brother is a pretty cool guy. Last week he went to Kearns and swam at Junior Olympics state meet. This week however my parents and little sister Brenna are in Clovis, California cheering him on as he swims against kids from all over the western United States! He's doing really well and I'm way excited for him.

While they're gone though I've been charged with taking care of the garden. A few years ago my dad decided to start doing garden boxes, it's been fun and he really seems to enjoy helping things grow that benefit our family. So I was a little nervous to take over the garden while he was gone, especially with such a variety of plants. We have beans, onions, corn, raspberries, tomatoes, spaghetti squash, cucumbers, two peach trees,  an apple tree, and of course flowers. But I think it's doing well! Here are some pic's to prove it:

 I think it's pretty good. I kinda wish I was there with them, but I am thoroughly enjoying the peace and quiet at home, as well as spending time with Kaitlyn!
