Gardening !!

I have always had a major black thumb... last summer was the first time that I was able to keep potted plants alive all summer, it was so exciting!!  So this year I am taking a HUGE step and actually... starting a garden in my front yard!  Last week I drew up a sketch of how I wanted it to look, and I just used my $300 gift card to Home Depot and bought a ton of good dirt (and mulch!!) and some pretty plants and flowers.  I am going to plant them tomorrow (if it doesn't rain) and I am really excited!

So wish me luck and let's hope that I can keep them alive again this summer!!

Re: Gardening !!

  • Good luck! This spring I was also successful at keeping tulips and various other spring flowers alive. That inspired confidence to do some summer planting now...I'm actually really starting to enjoy this gardening thing!! :)

  • So how is it going?  Were you able to get some of it done inbetween rain showers?  I'm sure it looks great! 

    I make Tim do all our yard work, I will only pull weeds- he does all the rest.  Mainly - I do the inside, he does the outside.

    Have fun!!!

  • I wish you were coming over this weekend and you could see!!  It looks awesome so far!  I need to get a few more impatiens for under the big trees in the front yard, and also some more petunias.  You and Tim need to come over for margaritas again soon!! It's almost boat time!!

  • Does this mean I need to be interested in gardening now too?  Josh always wants to get me out there...but...my A.D.D always gets the best of me.  :) 
  • Um, Tara, I don't think you will be a good gardener with a baby in your arms!!  She's almost here, crazy!!
