Date Night...

...for Mommy and Daddy. This is where our pawrents went on their first date so many years ago. They like the go back every few years to enjoy great food and reminisce about how their friendship grew into love.

They ordered a ton of food. Is that really all for two people? You can't trick us, Daddy. We see Grandpa in the background. Mommy's favorite was the Poke Salad. Daddy's favorite was the Dragon Roll. Grandpa's favorite was the fried oysters.

Look at how yummy the calamari look inside the little sailing boat.

Alas, there was no doggy bag...something about the food being too good, I mean, not staying fresh since it's raw fish and all.

Decisions...

...decisions. Where should we begin? It's time to really start thinking about our veggie garden. There are so many seeds to buy sometimes it's hard to know where to begin. Mommy will be taking an inventory of the seeds we have from last year. That sounds like a good start, doesn't it? Then we'll have to figure out when to start sprouting the seeds. Gardening time is very, very exciting for our family.

Are you all starting to think about the next gardening season?

Mommy went to...

...a potsticker pawty. Grandma, Mommy's Auntie, and cousins were all there to help.

They made 900 pot stickers. Can you believe it? They worked all day making them. There were two different types...one for soups and one for steaming and frying (just like they serve in the restaurants). We can't wait to taste them!

What happened...

...to all of our tomato plants? Daddy worked hard all day pulling all the dead plants and preparing the garden for Spring time. It almost looks like we won't be planting a garden here in the Spring. We hope to be in our new home by then.

Look at all the trellises, stakes, tomato baskets, and pots. Daddy wanted to take an inventory of everything. Even though it's the middle of winter it's already time to start thinking about the next gardening season.

Wow, Daddy sure filled a lot of garbage bags. Come on, Daddy, we'll help you load the bags into your truck.
