Green

Here are my too-crazy tomato plants...next time I will give them more space in between...
But still they're just doing their thing.
And I'm starting to see an eggplant and peppers:

And the baby magnolia tree is finally starting to perk up and produced one giant blossom (with a second on the way)

Not shown: Tons of dirt where the flower seeds never took. Ahhhhh.....

Outdoor Table

Built by Todd....we still need to strip the paint off the legs and seal it...but we took it for a test drive this past weekend with a total of 9 people.

Taking out the trash

Todd built a garbage shed today to hold the cans, out of leftover backyard fencing.
Being a tight fit, the only way to get it into place was to lift it down...from the inside. Climbing back out was not so easy...
How do I get myself into these predicaments?

A stray (but not of the feline variety)

I said I wouldn't blog about this, but I've already told my mother...so I guess there's no harm in putting up the photos.
On Tuesday night I heard a sharp cracking sound at the front of the house, but it wasn't until Thursday morning when I opened the front window that I found the bullet which had lodged in the frame.


Scary? You betcha.

The raccoons....

are starting to get on my nerves.

It's hard to grown things when they don't stay planted.
