May for us for the last 3 years has meant Selah days parade and performance followed by photo sessions for dance. This is the first year the Emma and her BFF have been in class together and they have been giddy all year. With our move across town it gives them 2+ hours a weeks to sneak in some catch up time. Here they are all dolled up ready for their ballet shoot.
The swing that we bought last month has finally made it to the yard. Now we just need to build a small box around it for the pea gravel.
Here is Addysen, at 7:10 AM mind you taking her first swing on her new 'playground' as she wants to call it.
The Hops are on their way up the shoots, they grow almost a foot a day, check back next week for the up date. they will reach the top of their 21 foot pole in no time flat.
So last week I was searching out Lumber garden boxes and found the directions for an easy peasy one ( I will link it later) and my man desided to get it put together for me, I got to help with the drilling and diggin of the holes. It measures 6' by 4' and I am excited to have it. I already bought 3 kinds of tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. yippe for my Victory garden.
Oh yes before I forget my man also spread 2 cubic yards of river rock aound the house, needless to say his shoulders and back ar a bit achy this week. We still need 2 more, yards and pea gravel but it can wait.
And the Piece de' Resistance ~ our grass is almost grown in. We are going to do a rock bed along the house, and around the swing, but I would say 90% of our grass is doing really good. I cannot wait for our fence to go up in a few weeks so that our yard can truly be a haven fo the kids and us.
Here is my humble little garden planter, if I enjoy the process and the crop goes well, Lord willing I will add another one next year.
