Our Garden Currently: Dirt delivered and planting begins!

 

Here comes the dirt for our raised beds from Central Bark Sales in Lebanon, Oregon! 

It was delivered by a very chipper driver, as you can see!

We went with a steer manure, garden soil, composed dirt, and saw dust mix.

It smelled awesome!  And we couldn't wait to add it to our raised beds!

Look how amazing it looks!

We were so amped about the soil coming we started planting the same night!

We picked out our favorites and began giving them a dirt nap.

Later that night though we had to cover up some of the little sprouts because it got down to freezing temperatures.  The following day though we uncovered and planted a few more and were good to go!

Can't wait to plant more seeds and starters soon!  I really can't wait to take advantage of the goodies that will be produced from these fantastic little sprouts either!

Our Garden Currently: Our raised beds are coming along nicely....

The raised beds are starting to have progress made to them and I am beyond super excited to give this method a go this year.  We cut all the grass inside the boxes and then covered the area with newspaper. Newspaper is a natural weed deterrent, so it works best with a method such as this.  As you already know, we had the boxes made and ready to go for a few days now.  And, Skylar is a great little helper too!

Can't wait for the load of dirt to arrive and we can start to fill them and plant our wonderful seeds!

Looking forward to having a good herb garden this year too!  

The wildflowers are going to be planted along the fence line so that I can look at something pretty and colorful besides my neighbors.  Ha!

Baz gets a much needed summer haircut

Hair monster!

He was one hairy, little doggy!

It started out very slow at first.

Then it came off with ease and he was good to go!

He says, "ahhhh, much better, thank you."

"I look like you now."

And, PITA wasn't having it.  "Twins?  No way man!"

Then the clean-up.  Booooo!  :)

Zombie Movie Filming (Phase 5-Final Scene)

This scene was the final two scenes for the zombies and the main zombies of the movie.  Here in the first scene the zombies attack a gang of motorcycle riders and then a car full of passengers trying to escape the carnage of the city, but are attacked in the process.

The attack on the biker gang took three or four long shots because of the angle the director was looking for.  

He had the zombies attack several of the bike gang that way he got just the right one for the movie scene.

This scene took a few hours.

The zombies getting more instructions.  Who knew playing a zombie role was so overcritical and precise.  Ha!

A quick glimpse of what the bike gang attack scene looked like from the sidelines.

Skylar in the front of the main scene and waiting for his cue to attack the biker.  The guy said after the scene that someone really bit his back on accident, but he laughed about it so hopefully it didn't hurt him too bad.

Passengers of the car getting attacked.  This scene was gross because they have one girl get out of the car and lay on the ground with stocking filled with fake blood and noodles and the zombies ripped them out of her.  Yak!

The zombies gathered around after the last scene where one of the main characters gets attacked and taken down.  

And she's down and it was a cut and a wrap.

And it's over.  The movie was shot all in one day with some days before and after used for green screen scenes.  

The movie clapboard/scene marker.  The director ended up changing the name of the movie from "Contagious" to "Sick-n-Contagious" later on after the scenes were shot.
