What do you do when.....

What do you do when you are 18 and don't have a full time job?......Any thing your mama tells you!!

Andrew is currently "between" jobs and going to school full time. Andrew gets to do all the things that I can't do while I am at work. He is getting pretty good at dishes and laundry. Oh, and Grandma Ray has lots of "jobs" each morning in her garden for him.

The picture to the right is David's garden. The beans have grown over 6 feet up the trellis and sometime you see the plant sticking up past the trellis.


Merry Christmas in October to Michelle and David!!! 4 new trees: navel, Arizona sweet, lemon, and red ruby grapefruit. AND since Andrew is my hired hands these days he was the one who had the privilege to plant them. I have to admit, he did a great job.....and even cleaned up when he was done!






There is a little tiny tangelo tree in the corner. (My home depot tree.) The other trees I bought from Moon Valley Nursery. (They were a bargain!!)
I had Andrew take a picture by the trees so I could take another picture after his mission to see how much they have grown (if I haven't killed them) and how much Donovan will change.

Before I planted the trees I had to call Becca and ask her to measure how far apart her trees were in her back yard. She was such a nice sister she went outside with her measuring tape and told me 7 feet. My trees are planted just under that so I could fit all 4 across the back of my yard.
Oh, and by the way, people who don't have full time jobs at my house can't watch NetFicks or play Xbox until after 5pm when normal people are returning from work. I am so mean!!
