Yard & Garden **update**






















I can not believe how fast my garden is growing!!! I now know that I planted way to many plants in here. But, it is 8x8. I thought that was big enough to hold all of this. They didn't seem that big when I planted them. Oops.






I am really excited about the corn, even if my mom says its really hard to get actual ears. We will have plenty of corn stalks to decorate with in the fall!






I'm also very excited about these strawberries. There are tons of them and I was sure that I wouldn't have any fruit from it this year. Woohoo!!








Wow, my little garden is growing up :O)

On another note...the front of the house looks so much better! My mom was in town last weekend and we got the last bush out and trimmed the only we we are going to keep. I'm not sure 100% what we are going to do in this area but one idea is a deck to fill in the area in front of the door all the way out to the edge of the front room. I really like this idea, I think it will give the odd shape of that area a reason. Like it was meant to have a deck there. Another idea is to put a bird bath back by the window so Milo and Bella could watch them. But as my mom pointed out...we could do both. Have a deck and a bird bath. So who knows. I know my mom is trying to work it out so that my dad and Jake's dad can visit for a week or so and get the deck in and new floor in the kitchen and bathrooms :O)

I hope. I hope. I hope. We shall see.
