Foresters of food
The weather has been really nice, so we went hiking some more this week. We gathered more plants for the food forest, and played that we were from redwall
We now have lots of currants, some serviceberries, black raspberries, a gooseberry bush, strawberries, mint, a plum tree, and some Oregon grape. We want cherry trees, apples, raspberries probably more plums, and perhaps a peach tree and some asparagus before we are all the way done.
The garden is finally starting to sprout. We have tons of pea plants, and some lettuces to show for our work so far.
We have also been burning all of the trees we cut down and dug up from our yard. The kids really wish we had marshmallows.
Mike's next school semester started, and it has mostly been going well.
Alison has been preparing to teach a bunch of people about how to get along with their kids. Her class starts on Monday. She has nearly 100 people signed up so far -that is pretty exciting.
We also have been recently playing a lot of my Little Pony Tales of Equestria. The kids really enjoy playing it. Timmy is really excited to have created a new character that is a changeling.
Alison and Mike also have been playing season 2 of Pandemic Legacy, which is a board game that saves state between games, so when you unlock something you get to keep it next game. We are really enjoying it, and Mike is even designing a Legacy game of his own because of it.
We have been having a hard time keeping the house clean, but the kids are happy, and that seems more important.
We also pulled out the summer clothes, and started to put away the winter clothes. We are really glad that we received so many hands me downs because we can't but clothes anymore. Last year Allison really wanted to throw away some of our dinner stuff but we didn't and now we are also enjoying that.
