green thumb.....we will see...
I can't lie. I am no green thumb. But I do love to get my hands dirty every spring and plant my pots and my veggie garden. Two years ago I even convinced Dustin to take out the dying evergreen bushes so I could plant a lovely perennial garden. So every year, my garden gets lusher and my thumbs get greener.
Its January people. IN WISCONSIN!!! Right now it is sub zero, dead and barren. I have been craving something green. SO I finally bit the bullet and bought a little 4 inch potted plant. It didn't come with the little stick thing that tells you what it is, so I have no friggin clue what it is. All I know is it is green and it is alive. I just hope I can keep it that way!

major slacker!!!!!!
WOOOOOOW!!!!!! I haven't posted a new thing since October!!!! Sorry.!!!
What can I say. Life has been a blur. I am so busy hanging out with the kids that the last thing I have thought about is updating my blog.
SO whats been happening in the Marquand house???? Lots.:) Isaac turned 1 on April 2nd and Kyla turned 3 on May 4th. Both parties were a ton of fun and so enjoyable.

Kyla really got into the whole present thing this year. She is obsessed with horses for the moment and Dustin was able to make her a wooden horse swing. It was the perfect gift.
Isaac is crawling all over the place and not really willing to start walking on his own just yet. If he gets a hold of a hand, he is off and running though!

Dustin has been hard at work. We have been praying hard about the direction his business should go and every time we begin to wonder if Dustin needs to look for something new, he starts to get the phone calls. So far the summer looks like it is full of opportunities.

Me. well, I have been spending alot of time in my gardens. Its amazing the transformation the backyard has experienced in one year. Where there were once dying bushes, now has a growing, thriving perennial garden. AHHHHH color! I never knew the satisfaction of growing something. I am hooked now. We also got our veggie garden planted last weekend. I go out every day in hopes of seeing something breaking through the dirt, reaching toward the sun. Nothing yet, but hoping soon!
