Long time no blogging. So what have we been up to? This..
This is what a yard looks after a year of nobody living in a house. So so many weeds.
Remember this storm? We so would have been up there, but that weekend was moving weekend, so instead we drove past it, or under it, over and over moving our home. Yay new house!
We unpacked some, but mostly we gardened. It is that time of year to get things in the ground. When we moved in there was already an orange tree, a guava tree, 2 lemon trees, 2 fig trees, a cherry tree, a pomegranate tree, an avocado tree, and 2 who knows fruit trees that have yet to grow back enough leafs to identify. So, we are going with it and continuing our edible garden. We have added 8 blackberry bushes, 20 strawberry bushes, 2 kumquat trees, a mandarin orange tree, and we put a bunch of sunflower seeds in the ground, we will see if any sprout. 
Can you see how high this trellis goes? That will be a mass amount of berries one day. 
Kaitlyn the tree inspector, and pro stander. She moters around the back yard pushing her dolly stroller. She has walked holding on to/with only one hand, and she has stood up from siting with no support, but not quite taking her first real unassisted steps yet. 
See the big old pom tree behind Matt?
Mikey's rainbow. If you see him, you should ask him to sing the rainbow song. He's got it down through indigo and violet. Mikey is all about rainbows, slugs, worms, lady bugs, flowers, if it is outside, that's what he is interested in. Ah the freedom of side walk chalking in your jammies..
The yard came with a lot of weeds, but it did come with some pretty stuff too.
I need to find a before shot of this strawberry row. Man that was a lot of work. 
Blackberries growing already!
and the sun set looks very nice in our back yard
