today, i come with two surprises. first, i have pictures of our inaugural family project, and second, i have pictures! i'm talking up to date, hot off the press pictures. that means i found a little free spot on my nearly full computer in which to upload them, and then figured out how to incorporate them into a post. the family project took four hours, and uploading and finding my pictures to post took almost that long. be amazed.
so, our project was more fun than a barrel of monkeys....or a whole barrel of monkeys showed up to help us. either and both are applicable. hands and feet were emerging from every possible angle wanting to get in on the digging action, or the planting action, or the whatever-it-was-at-the-moment action. we didn't really know what to expect with our premiere gardening attempt, and that played to our advantage because we simply let the anticipation of the final project lead us on.
we dug up old stubborn roots, planted new delicate roots, mulched and watered. it was a project i'd repeat over and over again!
"Many things grow in the garden that were never planted there."
