Walmart, Kmart, and Lowes

Today, I went to all three places with all three (I mean four) of my favorite sons. First, we went into Kmart looking for a Baker's Rack - they didn't have one in stock. This was really not a big deal since I have a rain check for the sale price which will save me $20! Next, we ran into Lowes looking for gardening supplies. We ended up only purchasing three pairs of gloves, but we had a great time wandering around. Last but not least, was Walmart for groceries, full-sized hoes for Sean and Drew, a child-sized hoe and gardening rake for Aidan, bulbs, and tomatoe and watermelon seeds. Once we got home, they lugged in everything from the van while I put it away and then we decided to weed, trim and plant together. We had a wonderful time and the weather was absolutely fantastic - shady and cool with a light breeze!!!
Over the next week or so, Sean and Drew are hoping to work their way around our house weeding all of the flower beds. In return, Patrick is going to generously pay them for all their hard work!!!Front flower bed completed!!!
Flowers planted!!!

Good job parents, I say! Plus it gives the boys a way to expend energy - what a good deal - tired boys and a clean yard. How is the litttle babes Rach. Anything new?
