Coming Together

I've got a lot on my mind right now. Some things I am considering writing about but I'm not sure yet. It's good though. I feel as if there is a lot that's up in the air now with our life and it's exciting to feel like things are shifting. We've been feeling stagnant in some areas for a while and I can smell change in the air. The future seems bright.

We closed on our house. I was really nervous that with Joshua working on the renovations in his spare time, we would never get to see him. That hasn't been true at all. Most evenings we hang with him a little and when he has a spare moment, he comes over for kisses or a quick wrestle in the grass with Malachi.

My garden is underway. The day of our closing we put the beds into place and started filling them with soil. We've got onions, garlic, leeks, peppers, squash, cucumbers, beets, tomatoes and greens. Not to mention a whole mess of herbs that I'm still not sure where I should plant. I cut off some snippets of sage and thyme to add to our dinner this evening and it was so good.

Our fence will be starting to go up this weekend, which means we are almost ready to get our chickens. Yay! The coop is ready for them.

Things are coming together.
