Yes, I'm addicted to the Facebook app Farm Town but I'm gonna talk about our real "farm".
You know we've already harvested our lettuce and italian parsley a few times already and have given away some as well. Last week, we picked our first couple of strawberries (^_^) You might notice that it's still a little green on the ends but this is sort of a trial pick (yeah right, we were just excited =P). The other photos of the strawberries show the others ripening and this Monday, we picked 4 more. This time, they're juicy red! Soooo good! And there are more strawberries growing (^_^)
Jojo also picked a few cayenne peppers yesterday which he already mixed in with his dinner. The tomatoes are growing well too. Do you know how tall our tomato plants are? It's up to my shoulders! Didn't realize they could grow that tall coz our previous tomato plants weren't as tall as this.
Do you see our cauliflower? It's getting big too. And our zucchini squash has lots of flowers as well. I was telling Jojo I could put up a stand outside selling these veggies (^_^) We got excited in planting that we're growing more than we can use so we have to give them away. Next year, we know how much we need so that it's also not so crowded in the veggie patch.
On a different note, we have new pool toys! Finn has that boat with a squirt gun attached that gets its water from the pool. The boat has oar locks but no oars, so when we find small oars, we might get them so he can row the boat. I have that small aqua lounge and Jojo has a bigger aqua lounge. They're so comfortable you could fall asleep in them. There's also our floating basketball ring (^_^) It's been raining the past few days and the temps are a little on the cool side. Hopefully it'll start getting warmer again so we can enjoy our toys. And since Friday is the last day of school, Finn would want to swim more often. Wanna join us?

Birthday
It's my birthday! Coincidentally, Finn didn't have school today either. When he asked me why, I said that I called the school and told them to close for the day coz it's my birthday (^_^) He goes "Really? You can do that?" hehehe. But I told him the real reason afterwards =P
He and I went to GameStop to trade some games in the morning. Then we bought hotdogs at 7-11 for our lunch (yummy!). Then I went to work an hour earlier so I can leave earlier to have dinner with the boys. Of course, we went to Minado (where else?!). Finn told our server that it's my birthday so that they'll sing ang give me a cake (^_^) Their cakes are really good, not too sweet.
When we got home we rested a bit before Jojo and I worked-out with the DDR for Wii(need to burn off what we ate ... hehehe). That was their gift for me ... coz I told them that's what I wanted =P I'm enjoying it so much! Oh and Jojo gave me these beautiful roses. Lovely colors don't you think?
