Shutters!

I love my little house so much! Our south side is super dull and has just a boring window...bnut not anymore!Whit painted me some beautiful shutters!
(don't mind the green splotches...we don't know where they came from.)
and he even went ABOVE and BEYOND and built, painted, and attached a planter box full of flowers!
doesn't it look amaZing? Our neighbors are slowing down to look at it as they drive by. I love the planter box, I have beautiful flowers right in front of me every day as I work! (my computer is just inside that window...I can even see those flowers right now!).
We started a garden!

Our onions are sprouting...Our nine-legged garden is growing marigolds, broccoli, lettuce, beets, onions, arugula, cabbage, and some other stuff I can't remember.

Last year Whit ripped out the strawberries because he didn't know they grew back but this little plant survived the thrashing and here it is!

We even had broccoli come back from last year and some lettuce that never even grew last year but is growing now (before we even planted any seeds). I guess it needed to think a little bit before deciding to grow.
ahhhh, drinks!

watermelons

I started to carve a watermelon for my mom for mother's day but Whit took over - check out his creation!

the reaction was awesome...
