green thumbing it...

When we moved into our townhouse last year, I really wanted to get into growing flowers, bushes, veggies, etc. I've always enjoyed gardening, but I've never had much chance to do it. Last summer was incredibly dry, though, and I didn't think it was best to start anything in the middle of a drought. So this spring, I started planting some things here and there and I've had a blast! Everything is doing pretty well...I haven't killed anything yet! If I had a little more money in the budget for gardening, I'd certainly put a lot more in, but we're sprucing our place up little by little! Here are a few pictures.

This is the only picture I could find out what our backyard looked like when we moved in...pretty boring.

The sunflowers have been the most fun because the girls and I planted the seeds just a few months ago and they've shot up and given us a ton of beautiful blooms!

The tomatoes are finally starting to come in!
