The Backyard

Maybe you remember when our backyard looked like this:
Or maybe not.
But either way, we have done a TON of work on it and now we can actually enjoy hanging out in our own backyard.
Like making shadows!
of birds.
And families!
This is Weston and the little apple tree- so excited for some golden delicious!
Hyrum and the Peach tree- yes please! We also planted a nectarine, grapes, strawberries and lots of shade loving ferns, iris, bleeding hearts, Lily of the Valley, hostas, astillbe, honeysuckle and more!
And, our favorite Pa helped us build the best garden boxes around- check these babies out!


Oooh, garden time is getting near and I am craving some zukes and cukes! Thanks again, Dad!

I LOVE the shadow pictures! And I'm very impressed with the shadow bird. I've never been good at those things.

So Fun! Will you come help me with our backyard? We have a garden and used to have a tree but it died in the last frost we had. I would love to plant flowers but I don't know what flowers to plant that will actually survive, help... :)
