discovery.

our time spent outside in our yard & nearby woods, plus a few garage sales, yielded several discoveries this weekend...
+ our very own stands of lily-of-the-valley & wild leeks
+ the battle we began against our bamboo invasion, is actually one against a Japanese Knotweed take-over, yuck
+ there are loads & loads of very fat earthworms around these parts
+ getting a great deal on 25+ saplings/seedlings also means a lot of digging, and quite a bit of patience
+ if you are lucky, for less than $3 you can bring home a bouncy seat, an Anna nursing pillow (best treasure find of the day!), and a toddler-sized sled
+ hot days turn into sweetly cool evenings in the state of minnesota
+ sweetly cool evenings in the state of minnesota are not without mosquitos ;)

  1. I love the Anna Pillow! My friend and previous neighbor's sister invented it. I was having trouble until I got that pillow. It put Christian at exactly the right height. I also used it to prop him up when he was starting to sit.
