Spring Time

The weather is now right to start planting. This week our goal was to make a flower bed next to our deck. This is what the other side of the deck looks like, which we will do next.



We built a small retaining wall on the one side, then back filled with a lot of dirt from our garden. We planted some flowers, and will add a couple of ornamental grasses in the next week or so. We are making our yard pretty one step at a time.

We also planted a small box of herbs that we will make use of over the summer. The rest of the garden should be planted by next weekend.



Brooke is as cute as ever and finally allowed us to capture a picture of her two teeth.

Oh my goodness, what a cutie. She is GREAT at smiling for the camera. Can she teach Champ a thing or two- haha? The deck and garden are looking lovely.

So did you get the bunnies out or is there still an escape route for them?
