My parents spent last night with us and Luke was excited to see them this morning. After breakfast my dad and I took trash to the dump, and then we all went to Cars and Coffee in downtown Columbia. There were some neat rides there. Next we went to the farmers market and Luke enjoyed seeing everybody there. After that it was time to get to work. My dad and I planted sweet potatoes while Liz and Luke prepared some plants to be mulched. After lunch and while my dad was napping we went to Home Depot for a few bags of mulch. Upon returning he was awake and the two of us went and bought some straw to put around the sweet potatoes. I also started conditioning the other bales I had for a straw bale garden. Once our work was complete my dad headed on and the rest of us went inside. Luke played, I red, and Liz prepared dinner. After dinner Luke went to bed surprisingly early, but not easily.
