I might be a Hippie

Big House vs.

We must be backwards...I was listening to Zach talk the other day, and he was saying how his aunt is moving because they need more room.  It was then that it dawned on me that we are weird.  His aunt has two young boys and they live in a pretty decent size home...I thought it was big. 

We have a couple more kids then her and we are looking to downsize our home.  We want less home and more land for less money.

Just in case you are curious here are some other things that make us weird.  We really enjoy not watching tv.  It's rarely on.  (If I could do it without getting caught, I would totally bust the tv!)  We have no idea what goes on in the world...

I want chickens and goats.  I want a food forest.  I hardly buy any toys for my kids.  I've started making them things.  I hate credit cards.  I own a skirt made out of a table cloth.  I try not to buy chips, and Brian has to force me to buy pop.  (What do we drink??  Water.)  I have to physically force my child to wear underwear.  I'm sure there are a ton more but that is all I can think of.

My Mother's Day Present

So Brian built my a retaining wall to hold some herb plants. I have been wanting to post this for a while, but have been embarrased about how sad my herbs look in it.

I think I was killing them slowly. We discovered yesterday that not all of them were getting water. So another trip to the garden center and yes, my herb garden still looks sad. I am hoping against hope that they will someday grow and be big and beautiful.

Anyhow, I think the retaining wall looks great! Thank you Honey!
