A walk around the new neighborhood





It was another work day for us at Grandpa's house today. After working hard all day we went for a long walk. Mommy and Daddy thought we should become familiar with our soon to be new neighborhood. First we walked past an almond ranch. The almond trees were in full bloom. There were TONS of bees pollinating above the trees. The ground was covered with white petals. It looked a lot like snow...I wish it was snow. Back to our walk. We saw two horses today. I wish I could've gotten closer to them. Maybe on another day. Then we saw two Border Collies at another property. They were very friendly. Maybe Sierra and I can play with them soon. We also this giant St. Bernard. We've never seen one in person before. I'll have to think twice about playing with him.

Week thirty two in the garden





I was too tired to help Daddy in our veggie garden. I asked Sierra if she could fill in and she said, "Sure!" The bees were getting help from the flowers on our basil plants to aid in their pollination process. We all love honey so we're glad to help! Daddy says the cantaloupe is almost ready to harvest. We can't wait. We have a few red tomatoes that will be harvested sometime this week. We still have a lot of green ones that need to turn red. The weather report calls for rain next week. Sierra did a great job helping Daddy today while I caught up on my beauty sleep. Thanks, little sister!
