Our Davis Home Goes On the Market

Today is a bitter-sweet day for me. We put our home for the last 12 years on the market today. We are moving on to bigger, better things: traveling around the U.S. for several months and then relocating near Santa Cruz, CA. We're excited to live near the beach and coastal mountains, and nearer to the many family members that live in the Bay Area.

But it's hard leaving the only home that Jackson and Tera have ever known.  They came home to this house after they were born, and their hand and foot prints are in the cement by the playhouse that Matt built for them, and we have celebrate many birthdays and holidays here.  It is also difficult to move several hours away from our many wonderful friends that we now consider family. *wipes tear*

Our 1st Pumpkin Patch of 2010

Gardening

Jackson and I did some gardening today. We planted basil, thyme, and some kangaroo paw. Jackson's job was to water, and boy did he do a good job! This is the cute, little 2 step process he kept repeating as he watered:






First, he would carefully fill the pitcher with water.










Then he would pour the water from the pitcher onto the plants (or dirt). He must have remembered using a watering can to water the garden at Fairytale Town, because I certainly didn't tell him he had to water that way . . .








I guess all that work made him thirsty, because he would stop to take a drink from the hose fairly often. :-)
