All things bright and beautiful

I got on a plant ordering frenzy this spring and ordered a ton of plants (for me anyway). I also ordered some for Michelle for her birthday. I hope that they survive me. I am hoping that she will get charge of them by Saturday. Anyway, I have been having boxes left on my doorstep saying "Caution, Live Plants". Yikes, I don't know what to do with them. Today was a very nice day and I was in the planting mood. I stopped to pick up Ethan and talked Ashlee into bringing Bennett and Jacksen over to play in the yard while I planted. Bad choice. I forgot how small my back yard is in comparison to 3 young boys. Also, you don't have children around when you are playing in the dirt and then tell them "don't touch". I am proud to say that all of the plants are planted and I hope to have roses, hollyhocks and strawberries to enjoy this summer. I will try to post pictures. None of the plants are very impressive yet. I will try to keep everyone up on their progress.
