A New Garden Spot


When we moved into our house in November, we knew we had lots of yard work to do and Cowboy has been plugging along. Today, I came home and I have the beginnings of a garden. I'm so excited. There are many things we have in common and the love of gardening is one of those things. Hopefully, we'll get to have some tomatoes, peppers, radishes, and who knows what else. This was such a nice surprise. I didn't think we (meaning him) would have time to get this done until later this year. Doesn't he look cute working in is shorts and cowboy boots!

One other cute story about my Cowboy. On Saturday night, I had D (my great nephew) cleaned up and ready for bed. Cowboy came into the house and asked if D had ever went "cruising for chicks". D just looked at him like he was crazy. Cowboy told him to get his shoes on and get ready to go for a ride. Cowboy took him out in the convertible and they went for a ride. Cowboy said anytime someone would pull up next to them, D would sit a little taller in the seat and would say hi to the people next to him. D was so excited when he got back to the house. He came in saying, "We cruised chicks!" Cowboy is teaching him young.

The garden looks great.

I love the story of Cowboy and D cruising. I am sure D will remember that day for a long time.

Lynilu is right...you definitely have a keeper with Cowboy.

Cute story, D will remember that and will want to do it the next time he sees Cowboy.
I agree with the others, but I've told you this all along, Cowboy is a keeper.
