Who Needs a Green Thumb?

Turns out that even though I haven't got a green thumb- I can still keep an orchid alive. I've had this one a whole year! Ed gave it to me Mothers Day in 07. Everyone I've talked to says these are hard to keep alive and very finicky. Which is funny because I've killed every plant I've ever owned- usually within 4 or 5 months. This is the first time it's bloomed 5 different flowers! I think it's absolutely beautiful.

Kindergarten Graduation!

I can't believe it! This is him and his teacher, Mrs. Olson. She has taught all of the kids- 4 Huhtalas in 5 years! I asked her if she was tired and ready for a break from our family. :)

I'm proud of Logan and happy that he finally caught on to school. He didn't start reading until about January so I was a little nervous. Turns out it just took him awhile to "warm up" to learning.

Congratulations Logan!
