Day 94: Watch My Corn Pop Up in Rows

Today Lucy had a tech rehearsal for her Swan Lake Ballet this weekend. I'm pretty impressed with this ballet, it's probably just more fun because I actually know the story. But holy crap, this was a TERRIBLE rehearsal. Lucy wasn't suppose to get there until 6:00 tonight because she isn't in it until Act 3. I totally got lost in the ghetto neighborhood that this high school was in, so we showed up at 6:20. I was a little worried that we'd have missed her dance, but when I got there a friend told me she was really behind. When I walked in I found out she was still in Act 1! We didn't leave the high school tonight until 8:45, and they weren't done when we left.

Lucy loves ballet so much. I'm a little torn about what to do. I'm not putting her in it over the summer, it's just going to be too crazy this summer. In the fall I'm trying to decide if I want to put her in this same program or if I want to put her in a different program over on this side of town. I can't decide. I was all set to switch her over here, but then I go to this thing and see so many mom's I've gotten to know so well, and Lucy just LOVES it so much. I guess we can try the other program and see how it goes, if we don't like it we can always switch back.

Aside for the dress rehearsal, we planed our garden today. Well, we planted half of our garden today. Do you know how hard it is to plant a garden with the help of a moose of a two year old? I planted my corn weeks ago, and they are about an inch or so tall now, so I had to get them in the ground. Well, I planted those first, before Jack was all that interested in what I was doing. Then he decided he needed to help. Do you know how many times he walked on my corn? We'll see how many survive the boy. We also planted pumpkins, zucchini, and butternut squash. I still need to plant peas, carrots, broccoli, lettuce, and of course tomatoes. Hopefully my garden will do better this year then I've ever had it do in the past, I'm not much of a green thumb.
