It was another cold, rainy day today and I didn't mind in the least. There is something about the chill in the air and the fresh smell of rain that brings a feeling of peace and a sense of calm. I hung out in the greenhouse while it drizzled rain on and off. The little boys played in the sandbox, oblivious to the falling drops. Grampa would fill their buckets with water every time they came into the greenhouse and then they would lug them back to the sand box to play some more.
I finally got around to planting my pumpkin plants! It's something I've never grown before so I'm excited about it!
I also discovered that Sawyer needs somewhere to hang out while I help Grampa water/weed the greenhouse. We found the perfect solution! This swing was a gift from my brother when he came back from Nicaragua and it has been through all of my boys!
After getting Ollie down for his nap, my Mom and I escaped to town to buy some plants. I've been wanting to visit The Plant Ranch for a while now and even though it was rainy, it smelled and looked lovely!
I refrained from buying everything in sight, and got some awesome ideas for next year!
We also found some Honey Berries (Haskaps) and picked one up to replace the one that didn't make it last year.
And a rainy day wouldn't be complete without a batch of cookies. The first pan made it out of the oven just before the kids arrived home from school. They were pleasantly surprised! I had to stash half of the double batch in a container in the cupboard so they wouldn't eat them all before the next day.
