our easy garden tips

In the past years we made a huge garden, but after having Haylee we couldn't take care of a big garden. Souwan and I still wanted to have a garden because we love growing our own food. I feel like i'm being healthy that way because of the gmo, artificial this and that going into our bodies. And maybe it makes up for not working out. LOL. Souwan and I also both grew up having gardens. My mom would give me my own space to plant vegetables and flowers as a kid. I planted sunflowers and cucumbers. I believe I did other plants, however I can only remember those. I have photos at my mom's house in the garden during summer. I did photo shoots with my sunflowers. Nothing changes haha!

Mostly because she gets to play with water. Ha! (it's on our family Instagram and fb page Kiengkham Family Adventures) We deci

5 wonderful gifts for dad under $150

Father's Day is this weekend! This day is so much fun because we get to honor our dads. We show them how much we love them with spending quality time and my favorite EATING BBQ! It's almost another Thanksgiving for us here at the Kiengkham house. This is Souwan's 2nd year celebrating Father's Day with Haylee. We're going to try to do some fishing at the lake near our house and have a nice cook out in our back yard. The bad news is the weatherman is calling for rain all weekend. I hope it doesn't rain on our spectacular plans for Father's Day! If you're looking for some last minute gifts or just looking for a gift idea for your special dad here are some terrific ideas. 1. A framed photo. Souwan loves photos of him and Haylee. We have them in our living room, in his office at work and in Haylee's room. 2. Tools. If your guy is a handy man, Harbor Freight and Lowe's are like a candy store! You could even buy a nice tool rack or box for the gar

7 surprising things about the zoo!

There are always something new at the Zoo. Some things we discovered on this zoo trip that really surprised me: 1. The zoo is involved in research with the World Wildlife Fund. You can donate at the gift shops! We did it! 2. It's the largest Zoo in the world! 3.If you are a member of AAA you must go see the zoo because you get a discount!! 4.The NC Zoo has the largest chimpanzee habitat. 5. Right now the attractions are North America & Africa habitats but they will be adding Asia next. I'm really excited to see if they have pandas!! 6. They have a 2 mile hiking trail after you leave the African habitats. This was so much fun with our good friends and their babies. 7. You can zip line in the zoo! The NC Zoo in June was super hot with slight breezes. I was so grateful when we got those breezes of cool air. Every where we walked the sun was shining on us. Everyone was wearing their sunglasses, sunscreen, and summer attire. In case you didn't know, the uniform was
