My Kind of Fun

We came back from Larry and Ann's last night so that we'd be able to get some things done today. YARD WORK! My kind of fun. Seriously. I can't get enough. We built two more beds today, planted our first tomatoes and pepper, got our neighbor to bull-doze some stumps, Raph mowed the lawn, and I'm sure there is more. It has been so beautiful here, although not much rain for the garden, and our hose doesn't quite reach the beds so we've been improvising until we get a new one...


Makili had to be moved to a different bed so that he wouldn't tear out the new plants, but he didn't mind so much so long as he could continue to sink his hands in the dirt.

Look at our little lettuce heads just starting out. That there is the front row is Arugula (or Baluga as my Dad calls it.) My favorite! I'm such a proud mama of my little ones.


Have you EVER seen a more beautiful tree than the gorgeous horse chestnut (or Buckeye where I come from) in front of our house!
