We have lots of of little gardens in the front and backyard. I just love the beautiful spring colors.
Once the kids are out of school, I hope they won’t mind helping me out in the yard.

Springtime In Bloom
The flowers have been so pretty this year! I am so happy that Spring is finally in bloom.
We had a few yellow Tulips pop up this year. Every once in a while the Tulips in our yard bloom, but they are usually red.
We also found a beautiful pink Tulip too.
The Lilac bloomed, and the scent is amazing.
We have also had some pretty amazing Spring storms.
I absolutely love this time of year!
August No Driving Days
Well this month I didn’t to too hot in the no driving department. With school in session that puts me driving at least 5 days out of the week, so I’m glad I did my best over the Summer. For the month of August I ended up with 3 no driving days. That brings my year to date totals up to 38 days, still over my goal. We’ll see how September goes…
Goodies From the Garden
OKRA!!!!!
Dylan was proud to show off this yummy bowl of okra, and we are still picking this tasty crop every few days. Next year I know I will need to double the plants because Dylan can eat more Okra than anyone else in the family.
Gardening in August
The Okra blossoms are my very favorite part of vegetable gardening.
They are just too pretty.
This season we have been lucky enough to pick okra a time or two. I had only 5 plants that made it, and next year I’m dedicating an larger portion of the garden to okra. Fried Okra is a family favorite of ours, even Dylan loves it.
The corn is doing well too, but it isn’t ready to be picked just yet.
