Smell the Flowers

I did my flowers/garden yesterday, and I have the sunburn to prove it! This year for my garden, I am only doing a few vegetable plants, herbs, and flower boxes/pots.  My parsley came back from last year-so weird! We decided to go simple on the flowers this year. I just don't see the need to have tons and tons. Less is always more, I say. I used petunias because I have had success with them before. In other words, I don't kill them! ha! Let's hope I remember to water them. I have been following a blog (the blogger is a cousin of my friend Tanya) that has the coolest ideas for decorating, gardening, etc. A couple weeks ago, she blogged about making a miniature herb garden. It was so cute! I decided to try it myself. I also tried her idea of using chalkboard spray paint to spray a solid outlet cover, cover the holes with ribbon/twine/yarn, and use chalk to write whatever on it. I am going to use this label idea for the baby's toy baskets. I will have a label for everything!  While I was planting, Giana was on a blanket with her toys. She did not like the feel of the grass. Her face was hilarious when I sat her down in it! She cracks us up. :)

Enjoy the pics and your weekend! -AGM
