A Weekend of Bachelorhood

First off before anyone reads this. THIS IS SURPRISE FOR WHEN HALEY GETS HOME! DON'T TELL HER ABOUT IT!

So I was informed the other day that I am behind on my blogging... I am supposed to be blogging about St. Patrick's Day but Haley has the camera with those pictures so instead I am going to fill everyone in on my weekend as a bachelor. Haley is gone on a 3 day field trip to Zion National Park.

Just so everyone has a bit of background Haley bought some seeds and soil the other day to get ready for our garden we want to have this summer. But since we live on the second floor in Married On-Campus housing we don't exactly have a place that we can have a garden, until now! I spent the day today building Haley a planter box for our patio.


It is a 4'x4' box that has 8cft of soil and my favorite part is that it hangs out over the edge of our balcony. The sun doesn't quite shine all the way on to our patio so the box hangs out so that the whole thing can get sun. And because we, my sister helped my put it together, thought it needed something in it for when Haley got home we planted a Pansy.

Yes a yellow pansy.

And because my grandpa and dad raised me under the philosophy that every project means you get a new tool I had to get this...

A craftsman 19.2v drill with a Lithium-ion battery. Only the best in my tool box!

So my one weekend that I could have gone crazy being a bachelor I spent building a garden box for my wife. Hopefully we will have some good tastin food this summer. We are planning on growing hot peppers, bell peppers, green onions, peas, cilantro, and cucumbers. Hopefully it will all work out for the best. At the very least it has been fun so far!
