Hey All! Its the Mayfields agian!
Yesterday all three of us went to a garden tour in Eugene. It was such a wonderful afternoon. there were seven different houses you can go to but this one with the 3 different waterfalls was my favorite. I wish I would have taken more pics so you could see just how pretty everything was. And some of the people houses were huge and gorgeous. and there was live instrumental bands like sting quartets and such at different gardens. Tony has been really into this stuff ever scince his landscaping job started. I love it.

The waterfalls ended at in this pond where all these pretty fish were.





Tony is standing next to one of his favorite plants in this pic. he was telling me about it when he came home from work one day but I had a hard time picturing it. It was pretty cool to see but I have to admit I get a better kick out of the ponds and flowers in the fancy gardens.



Here he is holding our little Josey-girl out side one of the gardens.



Here I am with her standing in front of the waterfalls. she slept on my sholder through most of the gardens. It was so precious feeling her little head on my shoulder.



she loves to stare at this before she falls asleep. Its this cute little jungle themed sleepytime music thing. I don't know the technical name for it. There is a little monkey and frog that swings back and forth to the music and a little fishy that blows bubbles. I think I know all the songs on it by heart now :)


She is still a little to young for this baby gym but a lot of times she gets distracted for a little while looking at everything in it. so mommy is able to get some things done during that distraction.


I saw Sis Heather making these for her little girls so when I couldn't find a decent sized and decently prices big blacket to cover her car seat or stroller when we were out, I made one. It was really easy and I'm very happy with it. I'll have to make more.

  1. Gardens are fun. Especially the Chinese garden in Portland, it was better than the Japanese one.
    You did a good job at making the blanket. I thought you bought it or something when I first saw it, lol.

  2. Awww, family outings with the new Mayfield family! It's so sweet to think it starts out like this and one day your kids will be as old as ours are (maybe not 5 of them, but still) doing stuff together.

    PS I dig the blanket. I might make one for my own when it's time.
