That being said, today we got to work on landscaping/gardening.
My wonderful dad is so awesome because in the past year and a half, has made two major things my mom has always wanted:
- A wooden clothesline. She has wanted one ever since we moved to this house and he made one out of wood and it is so quaint! The whole look of it is so country-ish and cool! She loves hanging her clothes out! It just looks so peaceful with the clothes swaying in the breeze and it just makes the clothes smell oh so good!
- (2) wooden raised beds for our gardens! Last year we got some good things, but this year is gonna be better! We planted two kinds of tomatoes, some assorted peppers, and I personally planted the zucchini against the front stoop so they would climb up the railing. I toiled in the hot summer sun and in the slight drizzle planting those glorified cucumbers...
Here are some pictures of our gardening day!
Anna planting her Pink Girl tomatoes (That's actually the name!) She is so proud of 'her' tomatoes!
She was cheerful throughout the entire expierience! She was my hero!
See all those plants that look like *gasp* weeds along the stoop? MY ZUCCHINIS! hahahahahaha!
Ma and Lil Anna tending their 'green acres'
Check out the muscles! Haha, and his new summer haircut. After I convinced him that Matt Damon has the same haircut, and that Matt Damon plays a spy, he was sold.
(Never doubt my persuasion powers!)
I hope ya'll enjoyed my Memorial Day 2010 Gardening Extravaganza post!

Happy Memorial day to you, Sara! I love the clothesline your dad built. How thoughtful of him! :) And the garden looks really good. Thanks for sharing all the pictures!

What are you talking about--Matt Damon and a spy role? How in the world did you persuade him with that?
Love the pictures. See you soon my dear "little sister." Do you realize how long it has been since I said that?!
I really like your blog background Sara! Just thought I'd tell you :)
LOVE the "Green Acres" pose!!!
