0.000 HBDFun Family Weekend, Doesnt get any better than that! :D
*Well my friends, Its Monday again! After spending most the weekend outside getting some yard work and planting done, the inside is a disaster zone! How in the hell does that happen? Your outside but the inside is still a mess? Oy! While I need to get all those wonderful (sarcasm) chores done, I figure I have time for a post! Itll still be a mess when Im done... (At what age is it okay to make your kiddo start sweeping, mopping and doing laundry?! Not yet? Oooookay....)* On Friday afternoon, Sophie and I started our weekend off with a lovely walk through the backyard, on a search for some treasures! She found a Mickey Mouse that she had lost weeks ago, a shovel, which came in good use after I broke mine digging holes in the rain (more on that later), and mommy found these beauties... <center> https://s9.postimg.org/l5euqn97z/29365675_1923394297695485_6506468608367919104_n.jpg </center> After taking a picture or 12, hey it takes work to get that perfect shot ;), we picked them and made our wishes! Im pretty sure she wished for ice cream, and I wished for a beautiful Saturday! Both came true! On Saturday, there was a slight chance of rain throughout the day but it stayed warm and cloudy with a nice breeze. We went and had some delish barbacoa tacos for lunch. Then headed to Home Depot to pick up 30, yes you read that right, 30 bags of soil! Time for yard work! Sophie helped daddy mow the front yard.... <center> https://s9.postimg.org/avcfrjgtb/29366485_1923394354362146_5508414227066388480_n.jpg </center> Oh boy, was that fun! I filled at least 10 bags planters with soil for Grandma. Then we raked and bagged and chopped, oh my! Filled the whole trailer! <center> https://s9.postimg.org/ddy4rv7kv/29366273_1923394421028806_5898964476694102016_n.jpg </center> While doing this, it started to sprinkle a bit. It felt soo nice though, the cold rain hitting our warm bodies was really a treat! So we kept on going! We planted 4 fruit trees, in the rain! By the time we made it to the last two trees, it was pouring! Theres was lightening and thunder, the whole shebang! We rushed to get the last two in and not get electrocuted. By the time we finished we were soaking wet, from head to toe, dripping wet! The fruit from our labors _*BETTER*_ be big! <center> https://s9.postimg.org/ryf7n1xi7/29356336_957379627755276_1472203857631795222_n.jpg </center> Photo credit: @mamajeani It was a blast though, definitely memories in the making! We will remember that day for years to come. Every plum or peach we pick will be a reminder of that fun! <center> https://s9.postimg.org/4wymh72yn/29386099_1923394491028799_1461395599222898688_n.jpg </center> We finished off the night with a very yummy St. Pattys Day dinner, that @mamajeani had prepared (If you want to check it out, [Taste of Ireland for St. Patricks Day](https://steemit.com/dailyfoodphotography/@mamajeani/a-taste-of-ireland-for-st-patrick-s-day) ). Then it was sleepy time for our super sore bodies! Planting in the pouring down rain is really a work out! Sunday was a day of rest and relaxation! We watched movies and ate popcorn. Made a wonderful meal! I just kind of winged it and it came out soo good! Will have to do a step by step next time to share with you all.

Time to jump on these chores! Until next time, </center> ## <center> Peace, love and fruit trees! </center> <center> https://s9.postimg.org/7fkbhuttr/29433135_1923394691028779_7566244903823343616_n.jpg </center> *All pictures are mine, unless otherwise noted!* <center> https://s9.postimg.org/rqw640wf3/image.gif </center> ## <center> ~Proud member of ~</center> <center> https://s9.postimg.org/qolzlig6n/image.png </center> <center> [](https://steemit.com/@asapers) <sub> <sub> Banner by @shai-hulud </sub> </sub> </center>
