The Northern Lights !!!!!!!!

OMG !!!!!!!! We got to see the Northern Lights right from our Spokane neighborhood!!!!
The scientific name for The Lights is aurora borealis.
This photo and the ones above were taken by our awesome neighbors Margo and Steve! We drove with them a few miles away to a more rural and darker area to see The Lights.
Here is one of mom’s photos. Almost all her photos looked like nothing because early on she accidentally turned the phone to selfie mode and could not figure out why all the photos were just black!

Veggies are Sprouting!!!!!!

The snap peas have sprouted!!!! It’s so exciting!!!
Here are the teeny tiny carrot sprouts! We planted the carrots and snap peas pretty early and there were some cold nights and we were not sure if they would grow or not but here they are! Now we just have to take good care of them and wait patiently for them to grow big.
This is broccoli which mom eats a lot of. We did not plant broccoli seeds, we bought these already started. But they are at least twice as big as when we planted them!
OMG the best thing happened! We met our friend Austin who we have not seen for years. We went to The Meeting House Cafe and spent hours talking! Austin spent a year travelling all over the world and has been back in the states for a few months. It was so great to see him!
