Spring is here!!

I can't tell you how happy I am to see more warm days than chilly/cold! I've been doing some rug hooking and even cross-stitching, but when I'm not at work, I'm out in the yard and garden. Aaron has been hard at work building me an arbor as well as some raised beds for the garden, I've kept him busy! :o) Jess and I also spent a week in Arkansas visiting my parents, sister, brother-in-law, and nephew and had a great time!! Here's a few pics of our visit and the work Aaron is doing in the garden. I'm a lucky gal!!

Evening out the dirt!!
Our front door ready for spring.
Jess, Jake, and their artwork. The raised beds all ready for the garden.

While at Home Depot last night getting the boards for the raised beds, I took a look at the veggie plants and boy was I overwhelmed!! While driving to Home Depot, I was so excited and had a long list in my brain of what I wanted to buy, but as soon as I saw all the plants, I went blank. *sigh* I'm going to make a list and head back over one night next week after work. Tomatoes are definitely on the list, and Aaron wants cukes. I've also got a space for an herb garden which already has chives, thyme and chocolate mint growing.
