Fall is here… and almost over!
I am a bit behind on life these days. I tried to get some plants for our yard in time for the fall season. I think I must be on Baltimore time or something. The nursery we went to was closed so we headed to Lowes. They had a hand full of plants for sale and each was $.25. Some would say that is the perfect time to buy plants. But really, that is when you know you have missed the boat. So I got a few ground covers and some flexible tube for a plant tunnel we will hopefully make in the spring. We checked out this awesome book from the library that has all sorts of great garden projects for kids… things they can do on their own too. The tunnel was one of the ideas. Once we get it going, I’ll post photos. You only have to wait a few months! Ha!
Anyway, I haven’t gotten too behind on fall to avoid raking some leaves. It seems that any yard work I start takes a few weeks to get done. Finally I was able to get my piles into bags. They had been on the lawn for a few days. It’s hard when you start to get into a groove and your kid wants to take a nap.
Both kids loved playing in the pile. I kept wanting to get the camera out and when I finally did this is what India was up to. Ezra was in the swing, done with the leaves. Oh well.
