Mother's Day

Mom, Tian, Trace & Kassie Trimble

Our garden on lot #1

Tian & Trace haul'in the trash! Ty did not even have to train them.

We are becoming regular Iowa farmers. Have a big garden plot - we've planted several bean varieties, potatoes, onions, tomatoes, watermelons, and even some sweet corn. We have 19 chicken roasters we are raising - Ty, Tian and Trace and I spent yesterday trying to build a chicken hut!

Last week Trev, Ty and the Arzani boys struck gold.... A bumper crop of yellow morel mushrooms. They found over 16#s and put an add on craiglist and sold them all for $25/lb. The boys all thought we were going to be rich! Trace is our very own morel mushroom pig. He can sniff them out and find them faster than all of us. He has a real knack - maybe he can finally earn his keep......

Ty has trained his little helpers to haul the trash up to our house as well as the Gwinners. Tian does not like to be helped - she strains and makes some really cool faces as she struggles to get the "Empty" can up our driveway.

Baseball season has started. I'm coaching Ty's team, aka the bad news bears.... We have had two games rained out and have lost one game and won one that was rain shortened! We have a young team and a good group of boys.

Soccer is still going pretty well for Trev.. He seems to like it and has gotten pretty good playing time.

This catches you up with the Turner's
