Mr McGregor and More...

So I got a new sewing machine from my parents for my bday. Here's my first attempt at following a pattern. I made Emma a sundress. It took me 6 hours. It was a lot of work. It turned out a little big big for her in the side, but not TOO big. She loves it. :)

Here's pics of the girls playing dress up. They were so cute...


Here's their new swingset. They LOVE playing on it. Emma's finally learned how to pump her legs

PopPop came over for dinner the other night. We grilled hamburgers and hot dogs and went to the park. We got Emma a helmet and knee pads so she could ride her bike and practice. She wants to ride her own bike next time we go to the shore. We usually rent bikes and she wants to ride it herself. So I told her if we practice all summer, by the end of the summer we usually go labor day weekend so she'll be ready to ride it by then.

So my garden is coming along quite nicely now...however I've had some critters visiting. I decided to get a higher fence. Well, that probably helped with the groundhogs, but we have rabbits too. And apparently they're jack rabbits b/c that little thing jumped right over the top of the fence which is at least two feet high. I felt like Mr McGregor chasing Peter Rabbit... Here's my Corn plants..getting so tall now. They're up to my shoulders. My Tomatoes..see one growing?

Zucchini plants getting bigger too

These are cherry tomatoes..mmm..can't wait...These are my carrots..Peter Rabbit was munchin on the tops of them....
