Spring is here, and my garden is started!

I was going to take advantage of this huge dirt area by our pool (the one the kids are playing in in my previous post) and build a giant garden; my dream! But, with everything being as busy as it is, and so many projects already waiting for us, I decided to just keep my old garden and plant only tomatoes (6 of them!) and chives. I also have a pot in my front yard with other fresh herbs like parsley, mint, basil, and more chives. These ingredients are one of my favorite combos for a sandwich in the summer! They are also great for almost any kind of cooking. I also hope that all our fruit trees give us lots us fruit too. I can't wait! Yummm!

Chris is working on putting in a sprinkler system by the pool so we can finally get some landscape put in. I love spring and I love to garden! Plus it is extra nice to start crossing some things off the long project list!
