We planted our garden this past weekend. For me, this is always the big signal that summer is just around the corner. To get down in the dirt and dig around is pure bliss! This year, we tilled up a new section of ground, behind our garage, for our plants. I'm hoping that my veggies produce better this year than they did last summer ...

My boys monkey around in the hammock while I work.

This is the handsome garden boy that I hired for the summer ... he works for kisses. ;)
Seriously though ... I couldn't have a garden if my sweetie wasn't so kind as to till it up for me. I'm so glad we bought this rototiller a few years ago!

More boys, horsing around. They like to pretend they're pirates and the hammock is their ship.


A blurry shot, but you can see that even Roxy is blissful in the springtime grass.

Rhy is, of course, dressed up as a princess EVEN outside. Here she is whining at me to help her put on her slipper.

My little basil/flower garden. There's thyme, tarragon and rosemary in there too.

Happy plants in their rows ... tomatoes, zukes, eggplants, peppers, yellow squash, Brussels sprouts and lettuce.

Just a random, pretty flower in my yard.
