Ice Cream and Tomatoes

Saturday evening after dinner Brian decided to take me and the kiddos to Dairy Queen. He told the kiddos we were going somewhere ... so they loaded up into the van. As we were driving to DQ, Hailey started asking questions about where we were going ... so Brian decided to give her some hints. Here's how the conversation went ...
Daddy: We're going somewhere that has something good.
Hailey: Something to eat?
Daddy: Yup, what do you really like to eat?
Hailey: Ice cream!
Daddy: Maybe ... can you think of anything else that we might be going to get?
Hailey: Tomatoes! (with the same amount of enthusiasm)


That's our girl ... or pretty much all of our kiddos for that matter. They love tomatoes!


In other exciting news around here we got everything planted in our garden over the holiday weekend! Dad and Mom Herr, along with Derek (Brian's brother) came yesterday to help out. We weren't sure what all we were going to get in after the load of rain we got in the previous two weeks ... but they used their gardening skills to get creative and now everything is planted! We planted tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, squash, zuccini, green beans, and herbs (lots of basil!). We were so thankful for the beautiful weather that we had all weekend.
