Citrus trees, etc. update


So - I sent out a neighborhood email today about our interest in harvesting nearby citrus trees, and the responses have been quick and encouraging. Within hours of sending the E. several neighbors responded inviting us over. Be careful what you wish for...we now appear to have a very busy weekend, but the boys are into it, so that pretty much has me all peachy. The first couple to invite us over, said that we can clear off their lemon tree. Ben is always using up all my lemons for his homemade lemonade (that's his way of getting back at me for not buying soda), so he is thrilled to get his hands on an abundance of these little yellow jewels.

On a final note for today, to show you all what a good sport my Stephen is, here's a pic of him with three of our four animals. My hubby is NOT an animal person, but he knows I'm crazy about them, so he puts up with them. He's the best.

Toodles, Mar
