Gardening

Project #1 for the summer is done! Technically, it's not completely done as there is watering, weeding and harvesting to be done. But the front beds are all planted with shrubs and perennials, the veggies are in and up, and now the gravel is down too. Wa-hoo!Here is the before picture of our 3 raised beds from last fall.Here they are today.One of the beds has strawberries. Can you taste those juicy red delicious strawberries yet? If you can't, it's probably because they look more impressive in person.One of them has beets, radishes, lettuce and spinach. The last bed has some of the same and some space for summer squash and cucumbers to come.The side view.The opposite view. I love how the leaves are starting to fill in our trees! It's one of my favorite things about spring.Lest you begin to think this is some idyllic setting out in the countryside of Kansas, here is a reminder of some of the crazies roaming around our house! The tall one is our neighbor Logan.
