Our Garden Has Blossomed With TLC

�Earth is here so kind, that just tickle her with a hoe and she laughs with a harvest.� - Douglas William Jerrold -


When we first bought out home in 2009, the gardening aspects of it were a neglected mess. I knew it would take a lot of work � and many years � before all the landscaping was at a level that would appeal to us and add some natural beauty to our house. But I didn�t really mind; it was a project I embraced wholeheartedly. I still do. And although there is still so much more to do, things have come a long way since then.

For example, this is what you saw in our backyard that first summer:

Nothing to see here, folks, nothing to see...

And this is what you saw by the end of August 2011, two years later:

Hubby and I sit on that swing and enjoy the beauty around us.

There are so many flowers around our home now.

This is where you'll find me hanging out soon.

We're getting there...slowly but surely!

This year�s gardening season is just around the corner, and I have a list of glorious plans for it. I can�t wait to get down and dirty with Mother Nature!
