Well, here I go feeling over enthusiastic again. Making plans to fix things, attempting to plan a garden-at least I don't have a tree in the way again!
So I'm keeping it small. My two oldest love to help with the garden, so I can pretty much put them in charge of that and we'll be set.
I want to redo one of the rock gardens in the front... So pulling out as much vegetation as possible, probably replacing (that's a BIG probably) and making the faucet able to be winterized. Grading the dirt away from the house. Taking the tiller to it, laying down something to help block the weeds and putting the rocks back over that. There are some lilies and tulips I would love to save and replant, but I'm also not against just tearing everything out and rebuying the bulbs for those two plants.
Now, as much as I would LOVE to do more than one garden, I'm not planning on it. There's still general yard maintenance that takes a lot of time so I'm taking things slow. The vegetable garden is a must to help with the grocery bill and the kids will love to be in charge of that.
My other big project I'm enlisted my parent's help, which will probably be more of a "sit and tell us how to do it" kind of help. Which is just fine with me. I learn better if I have to physically do, and so does hubby. This project doesn't have to wait for summer, but it does have to wait for funds.. Most of the rock garden redo just take the ground the thaw and time, we have almost all of the supplies needed.
