The weather proved pleasantly warm today (in contrast to the heat we’ve suffered through last week), so my family and I went out to fix up our yard a bit, taking advantage of the fine day before us. The time of labor manifested fruitfully, and I thought I would take a few photos of the excursion to share with you all,

Our thriving squash plants. It seems like just yesterday I looked out and they were but wee sprouts! Maybe I just haven’t been very attentive… |

Horizontal banana peppers! |
I took the responsibility of mulching the area around our pine trees with some “Homemade” mulch that my Dad chopped up in our chipper. It’s so nice that we can do such things as this at home without having to spend any money!

And yes, I used our handy-dandy Radio Flyer wagon to transport the mulch from the woods to the pine trees! 😉 |

Thanks to Dad and my sisters; we now have some beautifully trim & prim hedges! |
My Mom and I harvested Foxglove and Sweet Pea seeds, along with taking down such plants, and my Dad and sisters trimmed the hedges lining our house.
