this is our garden...

... so far... much more to come.......



This is some of our flowers by our doorway. I love having a front porch that smells AND looks great. We put some potato vines in our hanging flowers pots so that we can have some vine-work on our iron-work. I also want more flowers to be hanging from the top of the porch. I love flowers.
We moved these 3 bushes from under the front windows. The far left is not doing well, the middle is half-way dead or alive, and the one on the right did the best. We transplanted them near the front door so we can see how they do with a better drained area and with a different light. Plus, we will extend our garden down the side of the house eventually...


More front porch flowers and a hairy-plant of some sort. We took it out of the ground and have yet to replant it and it's friend because we don't know what to do with them yet.

This is our front garden... Slowly slowly in the works. Lots of different things here. We took out our bushes the construction crew put in and put in some lovely Japanese Boxwood hedges that will hopefully flurish. We have lots of different flowers and bulbs planted around... But, I need to rearrange and add some more of the same flowers so it looks more pulled-together.


We went to the Minor lake-house on Friday and they have this GREAT bridge and island. Lauren loved looking in the water. Next time we go, I am going to have a photo-shoot.... and hopefully have some better pictures come out.

She LOVED looking out into the water. She found some ducks and liked to watch some of the boats. Finding her shadow.
