Spring is making it's way into our backyard.

This is our persimmon tree.

Jeff and Grace planted some vegetables today.

Chinese leeks, radishes, turnips and zucchini.

The swiss chard from last summer made it all the way through the winter.

Grace the other day: "Mom I just ask so many questions because I want to be a scientist and I need to know everything".  Yep.

This is our Fruit Splash tree given to us by Kristen for Christmas.

It will have nectarines, peaches and apricots.

Here's the little scientist learning about roots

and collecting rocks.

Of course, scientists can be goofy too you know.
