Spring Planting

(Above, two little sprouts of "Lily of the Valley" Perennial...this is in front of the children's windows, should be pretty!)

We have been busy this spring planting out front of the house and getting seedlings ready for the back garden as well. I'm so looking forward to the front of the house to be prettier with color! I'll try to remember to post some pics of how it will look once things are growing!

Here are our tomato plants...


In the ground out back I put in potatoes this week. Mark and the children planted onions and garlic a few weeks ago. We have our tomato and pepper seedlings growing pretty well, which will be going in the ground in a few weeks if all goes well!


These are the peppers...
After that I hope to try a melon patch back behind the garage, and some beans, peas, squash, carrots, dill and cucumbers. We'll see if Mark leaves me any room to do so!

In the front my herbs are coming back, so we have tons of rosemary (which actually never died back this winter), sage, basil, and I planted parsley and lavender today. I planted a few different flowering perennials in front of the childrens window's, so hoping those will actually grow.

(A very sad front bed that hopefully will be growing some pretty plants this year!)

I never knew how much fun it was to get in the dirt like this, I am so enjoying this spring, more so than any spring before! God is so good!

(Another sad window front...)

Above are some of my herb beds, its crazy to think of how green it will be here in a month or so!
