Garden Crew, Let's Get Gardening

This is the garden crew. Starting from the left: Grandma Nance, Poppy, Dad, Mom, Sammie. Just love them to pieces. I couldn't think of a better group to spend my time with. There's only one thing missing...and that is...

The Garden Cat: MooMoo
-No matter what I am doing in the garden, MooMoo is there to supervise and protect.
Today, was the first day for actual outside garden activities. Here's the cutest Mom in the world. Her and Dad let me tear up the yard, and I love them for it.

My mom surprised me with the new beds. I couldn't believe how much work she put into this. She's the best.


This is us trying to decide where everything should go. We had to get it just right.


Cute set-up. Thanks Mom.


My Mom found this and was so tickled to put it in.


I think we're going to put some flowers in that back corner.

My aunt Robin gave me these hostas a few weeks ago. At that point they were only sticking about an inch out of the ground. They're going strong now.


I couldn't believe that these flowered. I cannot remember the last time they had flowers. It's been years.




Gardening Tip of the Day: The size of the garlic clove you plant affects the size you'll harvest. Garlic always tends to downsize. Save the biggest cloves for replanting.*
