UH football players in the making!!!

Saturday was a great day at Robertson Stadium for the Ortiz boys! They got to experience a mini- football camp with all the UH players! Jonah had a blast and now calls the UH team, "MY TEAM!!" which those of you who know my husband knows that hearing that is music to his ears! Thanks Sofia and Pino for taking some great pics of the boys!!
Here is Jonah with his daddy!

Our family, ck out our tired football players!

Gardening - update

Well, it has been less than 1 month and our garden is doing wonderful! The only problem we had was birds have been eating our fruit and veggies! So we researched and lots of people said to use pinwheels and bright stuff to scare birds! Our owls are on their way thanks to Amazon! We have had lots of fun taking care of our growing garden and the boys LOVE it!!!

Here is our lemon tree!

Gardening- The beginning...

We began our small vegetable, herb, and fruit garden! The boys really wanted to create something fun that they could watch grow and we thought it would be lots of fun! We got a few pointers from our good friends and were on our way to beginning it!

All together we are growing- tomatoes, lettuce, strawberries, green beans, jalepanoes, bell peppers, onions, herbs- rosemary, ginger, parsley. We also have a watermelon, and LEMON tree!!!!

The boys helping put together the garden!

Both working hard!!!

Tada...completion of inserting the soil!!!
