Oxbow Farm

My friend Asia put together a really fun field trip the the Oxbow farm.  The kids had a great time playing, learning and eating the six different parts of a plant.


All three of the kids trying the flower and spicy seed

Picnic lunch under the grape arbor



I'd sell Milky White for these magic beans!

Chia Lincoln

Jeremy had to attend a week long conference in Florida and he always comes home from these functions with a lot of weird gifts, this years theme was 'grow' so he has a ton of growing/gardening type things and while I mostly just try getting rid of the stuff as quickly as possible to declutter the house I decided to finally do a Chia pet.  Yep, that's right I have never done a Chia anything before and thought Jaydon would enjoy it so we set forth with this glorious Chia Lincoln that Jeremy was given.  I prepped it but then made Jeremy take over from there.





Jaydon has enjoyed it but I have been a bit creeped out.  The hair never grew in right on the front of his head so it is not very attractive and really it is kind of creepy and moist all the time seeping water out of the clay and a green fuzzy Lincoln.  The cool part of it is that Jaydon enjoys talking about Lincoln now but other than that I think I can probably pass on future Chia adventures.
