Early Garden Pix

It was a long cool Spring, not sure that's over yet, but Katie and I finally got the garden planted, and most of the plants are coming up nicely...

 Early bloomers behind the garage

  Peonies

 Potatos

 Topsy-Turvey Strawberries

 

Under the cherry tree

 

 More potatoes, squash, melons, pumpkins with carrots and beets in between

 Peas... we need to get the netting up so they can climb

 Corn, radishes, and still waiting for lettuce, carrots, beets

 

Broccoli, tomatoes, onions and basil

Mmmm... strawberries -  the ground variety

 Zucchini, beans, beets and more (later) corn

Visit for Anna's Birthday

Jenny and I traveled to Indy the weekend of the Indy 500 to attend Anna's first birthday party.  The girls were as cute as ever!

Christmas At The Gropp's

Mary and I had a special treat being with Karen, Brian, Adele and Anna on Christmas morning!

 Adele loves her new clubhouse with the purple roof!

  

 Rose Bowl fever!

Christening and Scarey-Boos

On Friday Mary and I headed to Indy for Anna Kate's Baptism.  We had a long, busy and fun weekend.  We arrived about 7:30 EDT and the girls were srill up,  Adele was quite excited with having Memaw and Bapa and Aunt Dee Dee and uncle Mital there, and Grandma and Grandpa Gropp coming tomorrow.  And the prospects for fun at the Children's museum, swimming at the Grandparents hotel, and trick or treating.

Herewith, a photo compendium of the weekend.
