The front garden

Pat has been working incredibly hard to help me with the improvement of the front garden. I am pretty excited about how things have turned out. Eventually we want to put something with color in the front & I plan to put a whole bunch of bulbs in come fall.

Garden

This weekend was an absolutely perfect spring weekend. I got to spend lots of time out in the yard getting the garden in order for the season. The big project I took on was to reshape the beds so that I had a nook for the playhouse & a little bit more room for the herbs & veggies. I believe I transplanted about 50 ft2 of grass and amazingly, I had just the right amount to fill in the parts that needed to be filled. I'm pretty happy with how things turned out. Oh, and when I took a closer look at my garden I found one of the carrots I never dug up last year. It was incredibly fragrant. There are a couple more in there and I think I'm going to see if they grow a bit more. Now I've got to decide what exactly to plant around the playhouse... fun, fun, fun!!
