Backyard and Garden

 

The great backyard has even changed since I took this picture but this is just an idea of what we've been doing this summer...lots of staining!

 

My garden is coming right along. I can't keep up with this gigantic rhubarb plant I have growing!  Its leaves are bigger than all 4 of the cats combined!

My herb garden has grown out of control this year too...luckily I can use almost all of them!  Its great to make fresh pesto, use the yummy rosemary on grilled potatoes and cut up chives in my sour cream to top those potatoes once they come off the grill!  All in all its been a lot of fun to learn to do.  I didn't think I had much of a green thumb but these raised beds are making me look good!!
