Hey guys! How’s your Saturday treatin’ ya? Things have been going great over here…
Mid-morning, we got started on the new garden! First, we figured out our spot.
We measured out our space (it measures about 8’ x 12’).
Mom & dad came over to visit and dad helped with the tilling.
I took care of raking out the leftover grass.
We started digging our trenches and planting the seeds.
Cody watched from the kitchen window, as he usually does.
I continued planting more seeds.
And got nice and dirty in the process. 
We marked out our spots and did some watering.
And now, my friends, we are in the process of having our very own garden!
We still need to pick up some tomato and pepper plants tomorrow, so once those get planted, we’ll get up our nice little fence and keep our fingers crossed for a successful veggie garden.
Once everything is planted, we’ll have onions, carrots, peas, green beans, cucumbers, yellow and green squash, tomatoes, and peppers. I am SO excited to finally (err, hopefully) have my own veggies right from my backyard this year.

Once we were finished working in the yard, Jay and I decided to treat ourselves to a little Date Night at one of our favorite local spots, Lanie’s Café.
We both love Lanie’s for the food, but we love it even more for their amazing patio that opens once the weather gets nice. Since today was an absolutely gorgeous day, we figured we’d take advantage.
(sportin’ my new Oakley sunglasses, holla!)
We made sure to get there a little early and had no problems grabbing a table. I sipped on a Sam Seasonal beer while basking in the beautiful weather.
For dinner, I was *this close* to ordering their amazing veggie quesadillas, but made a last minute decision to get their Chicken Florentine sandwich.
Grilled chicken, fresh spinach, provolone cheese, and homemade Russian dressing.
Deeeelicious.
In a little while, our friends Brian & Mal should be stopping over; we’ve got plans for a fun bonfire AND, word on the street is that there may be some s’mores involved.
Hope everyone is enjoying their Saturday!
