Super Saturday and Sunday

Our SUPER weekend actually started on Friday with Bo tilling the garden. It was tough at first but he did a GREAT job. Bo running the tiller.
On Saturday morning we got up and harrowed the garden. This was a blast. We hooked up the harrower (not sure if that is even how you say it or spell it!) to the 4-wheeler and away we went. It was a blast!
I think the garden looks GREAT! And I think Bo did an AWESOME job!!!!!
After getting the garden ready, we decided to plant some new raspberry starts! Mom had transplanted several last fall, but a few of them didn't make it.
The look great already! So excited!!!!
After getting the garden, etc., ready, we headed to Pocatello to do some shopping. It had been two months since Bo and I had been shopping just the two of us. So totally enjoyed our time together. While we were out of town, we decided to look for a new bike for Lizzy. She had completely out grown her other one and so we bought her a new one.

She was soo excited. We also bought her a "Mountain Dew" helmet. That is an inside joke her at our house!!!! She thinks it is too cool!!!!! After getting Lizzy's new bike going, we had to work on the other two as well.
Mikki's bike needed training wheels, and once they were on, she hasn't stopped.
Bylee's didn't need much, but she finally ventured from the cement pad out in front of the shop. She did crash and burn on Sunday afternoon, but she recovered just fine and was ready to go again!!!!
Also on Sunday, we headed to my sister Debbie's to Ordain Matt a Deacon. Bo was asked to take care of this. He was a little nervous, got some advice from dad in Missouri, and he did an AWESOME job. I will post pictures of this later on.
When we got home Sunday afternoon, this is what was coming over Elk Horn Peak. I love the smell of rain and the way it looks when it is coming across the valley.

Unfortunately, none of it actually hit us. Oh well, it is still gorgeous!
Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and look forward to a GREAT week!
(Once again don't look at the date at the bottom of my pictures! Someone, I won't name names keeps messing with my camera!)

So I'm so impressed that you guys are now getting your garden's and summer things going. If only I could get Blair to settle down for two minutes to help me till out garden, I'll be beaming!!! Hey, we're sad Brylee couldn't come to the party but we have some fun party gifts for her. I'll bring it over!!

How fun - I am so excited to be done with school and start doing some fun outside jobs. I'm glad you made the girls go outside and help with the yard work... it is a rare occurence to see kids go outside these days and away from the TV. Keep up the fun posts.
