Dan started a neighborhood garden and was able to get help from several others who are part of the garden to spend a Saturday getting dirt from a local landfill. He's spent several hours planning, building raised beds and purchasing supplies. We're hoping for it to be a big success since this will be the first year that we will have other participants.
Before the dirt :)
Before.
Filled, or at least a few, they have to finish filling the rest. Dan's hoping to put 6 raised beds in every year.
On Valentine's Day Dan went and ran the Krispy Kreme Challenge. You run 2 1/2 miles then eat a dozen Krispy Kreme donuts and then you run another 2 1/2 miles.
This week was a week of no school. A week of snow or maybe I should say ice days! Monday was an early release day and then the kids had off the rest of week. Monday I spent a big part of the day doing laundry and getting ready in case we lost power (it was also our grocery day.) We spent the first day enjoying playing in the snow with Dan working from home. Wednesday was a day of cleaning, Thursday we were all starting to get cabin fever and then yesterday, Friday, we had a super lazy day of movies and relaxing.
Thursday evening we were able to go to an Apostle Devotional for couples with Elder Todd Christofferson. We carpooled with Ben, Shalyse and Becca. We drove up the Raleigh Stake Center (we are in the Apex Stake Center) and enjoyed the devotional. It was FANTASTIC! The parking lot was crazy though, they had two rows of cars parked perpendicular from the cars that were in actually parking spots. It took 30 min for us to escape the parking lot and then we drove over to The Cheesecake Factory and enjoyed good food and good company.
