Spring has sprung!
The Cormier fam is out and working in the yard :) We have never been here for spring, so we might be going a bit overboard. We planted annuals all through the front yard flower beds. This isn't a big risk in most places, but here in our yard, the soil is like clay and it's filled with rocks. But before you can even get to the cement-like clay, you have to first go through a layer of roots/weeds that looks like crazy red-ish/purple hair. So, I did the best I could and tilled the land. I brought in some soil and put compost (mushroom from the bag mixed with pulp from our juicer - it seemed like the right thing to do?) I dug about 3 inches deep and replaced the soil with that little combo. I hope it works! If not, our yard will be pretty for about a week! Come visit quickly just in case!
You can see above that LJ decided we needed a little raspberry crop. I'll keep you posted on that one, too :)
Here's the first bloom from our knockout roses - the bush was given to me by my sister a few years ago, and it looks like it survived our neglect through the baseball seasons!
