Gardening

So we started planting in our garden this Sunday, and did some more today.

A friend gave us this herb growing kit, so we did that.


Parsley, marjoram and chives.  

We put them in these bags so the sponge things they're growing in stay moist.


American backyard.  Clothes on the line, gardens, and white picket fences.


Melissa has her herb garden again this year.


Parsley and lavender from last year.



We started doing composting differently:  in a wire cage like this instead of a box on the ground, so it is kept away from animals, and has more air circulation.  Something like that.

I love the page layout you have!!! Beautiful!!! Some of my favorite stuff. :-) I should ask you all about composting sometime. I just started a new "pile" using a new "method" and I'm not so sure about the whole thing! And, the gardening looks great. Maybe I need to come be homeschooled in the Christofferson Classes.
