Bring on Spring!!

I love to see the weather getting warmer and the snow melting. I am anxious to get out and wake up my yard and bring it back to life with fertilizer and some beautiful flowers. I am ready to get my flower beds in and make my yard complete.

I did plant my little garden in cups a week ago and they are already beginning to sprout. I don't know what it is about planting a garden , but I just love seeing those little seedlings come up and grow. My dad grows an incredible garden. I only wish that someday I can be as good at it as he is. I had a wonderful garden last year. It grew so much food for us, I felt so blessed to have been able to can so much of our own garden. I hope that it will do just as good or better this year. I know that they take so much time and work but I know it is worth it. We have been able to go downstairs and pick whatever we want from the shelf and I feel so good knowing that I grew that food. Let the Spring begin and I can get the rest of my garden in.

  1. YOu did have a beautiful garden last year. We had a little tiny one, but it was still a lot of fun to can everything (and lots of Gpa's too) and feel like we are taking control of our food storage. Good luck with your garden this year.

  2. PS> Sammy thought that that picture of you with Michael and Bryanna was her Grandma KL...she insisted that it was here. You too really do look alike.
