grandpa duck hanging out with me in the garden, asking all about my day
he's being a good listener and especially cute because he's sorry that he made me chase him with a shovel after he was caught hunting down and thrashing little ducklings in the air like rag dolls right in front of me! After finding two dead ducklings this week with no clue as to how they died, we've found our culprit. He's been separated from the flock until the duckies are bigger. #notsocuteafterall #strangeduck #murderousrogue #grandpaduckserialkiller
Mike brought home a new pet
Me and my littlest boo weeding the garden after watering the whole thing by hand. We haven't had a drop of rain in a week - or has it been two?
Baby ragweed is our favorite weed to rip out when the ground is wet because its shallow taproot makes a delightful "pop" and the whole thing comes right up. #beyondsatisfying #weknowhowtoparty

Asher is crocheting Ayla's birthday present: Pumpkin pie and kiwi fruit! 👏💖👏
I planted this blackberry bush 2 years ago. It's been eaten by goats several times, but this is its year. 1st ever blackberry starting to develop!
layering newspaper and carboard in the garden paths today. My helpers are slackers, but they sure are sweet.
Asher has been volunteering to mow and help with mulching the garden. We were able to mulch 4 rows of tomatoes and peppers! ♥ my hard working helper.
