Inexpensive Hobbies

One of the many things that my husband and I has in common for a hobby is photography. Before I discovered blogging, I used to spend 20-50 bucks worth of money in ordering copies of the photos we've taken. But when I started blogging, I only upload them here and did not bother having hard copies anymore, although I still want to (I just can't afford as there's too many lol). Anyhow, these two are always the subject of our photography obsession.
I love gardening as a hobby too. This year though, I did not buy any plants at all as I did not have any savings for it. What I did was spread out the seeds that I collected from the previous years and that is all what I have in my garden this year. I still have pretty flowers even if I did not spend any thing this year. Do you save the seeds too?

My Men are Sick and another teaching session for my daughter

Hello everyone, howdy? My daughter and I just finished our lesson for today. We focused on her counting and familiarized herself with each number. She knows how to count but if you ask her a certain number with two digits, she find it hard to identify them. She learned a lot today but we still have to go with it over and over again to master it.
Sometimes I forgot that I am teaching a 5 year old and I am being so hard on her. I salute all the teachers who patiently teaches children, it takes a lot of passion to be a good teacher. I don't think I could do it as a profession as I don't have much patience.
On the other note, I mentioned yesterday that both hubby and son are sick. I wasn't able to sleep good last night because my son was pretty much affected with his cold. After eating breakfast today, they both went back to bed and when they woke up, they both feel a little better.
These shots were taken yesterday when we visited my father-in-law. Every time these three are sitting together, I always took pictures of them so that when my son grow up, he would see how close the three of them were.
Thank you all so much once again for always dropping by and for leaving your valuable comments.

Peppers on a planter

Since Chelsea (our pomeranian dog) loves eating greens in our yard, I decided to plant my peppers on a planter and put it up the railing so she couldn't reach it. I took this shot last week but right now, the peppers are much taller and starting to bloom already.
By the way, I did not buy the pepper plants, I just spread out the seeds that I took out from the pepper I used in cooking.

Strawberry on a Pot

I took this shot when we visited Jen's house last weekend. Her stepdaughter was picking the rip strawberry that they planted on a pot. They are so sweet even if they were teeny beety small in sizes.

Rylie is Sick

When my little burrito woke up yesterday, she was complaining that she has a sore throat so we gave her some medicine. It was the last day of her Bible Study yesterday so even if she wasn't feeling well, she still attended. When we fetched her at noontime, she's so down and sick.
Here's my little kitten with the paint mask on. Little brother tried to comfort Ate Rye by wiping the wet rug on her face and clean out the paint.
I couldn't pass the opportunity not to take photos of the scenario yesterday because it was very sweet of EJ to take care of her sister.
After he clean her face out, he gave her a sweet kiss.
This is why I wasn't able to blog today. I also had a dental appointment this morning then we dropped by at my FIL so Rye could stay with Pap while we buy some groceries in the store. She was fevered up to 104.6 a while ago and Daddy wanted to bring her to the hospital but I said that I will wipe her some wet cloth again and see if it helps. He also gave her some meds. After an hour, she was feeling okay and played with us outside. Hopefully, she'll be okay when she wakes up tomorrow. I have a migraine so I am now off to bed, thanks for visiting guys.
