Green Thumb

I don't have the best green thumb, but I try! I think the desire for a well manicured landscape just comes naturally....my parents have a beautiful yard. A few weeks ago I asked my dad how many trees were on their property when they moved there in 1986. He told me four!!! If you've seen my parents place, you know there are now too many trees to count and it's just beautiful. Billy and I planted our first tree a few weeks ago. Of course it's a "left over" and needs a little TLC. I've been watering it twice a day and I have since noticed there are a few buds appearing....I hope it will continue to live.

I tried my best to keep Raegen out of the fresh dirt that was a result of our tree planting, but I failed miserably. I was able to disrobe him before he covered himself!


This is a good picture to showcase my hair cutting abilities. I've been wanting Raegen's hair short for some time so I took the liberty to start with his bangs...and that's as far as he would let me go. I have a feeling he will want this picture destroyed one day.


I need more dirt! Show me the dirt!

This looks interesting...

What's in here?

Hello??!!

Here's my beautiful crepe....

azalea...

and gladiola (all "left overs"). It's been a challenge to create a landscape with "used" plants, but it's also refreshing when I succeed at bringing them back to life!
