Splish Splash

I love this time of year.  Hot enough for the pool but not so hot that I can't be bothered to move.






I never thought I'd say it but I kind of miss the hill in our old yard.  But only because of this.


Now that was a water slide!

New Page-Homeschool Resources

I added a new page to the blog for links to homeschool resources.  I'll be working on it over the next couple of days.  There are quite a few links over there already so check it out.

Things Are Growing

After a couple of good downpours, the garden has really started to take off.  All of these plants were put in last year, some from seed.  They are huge!


Lamium

Catmint

Bee Balm

Jacob's Ladder

A nice sedum squished in there.

Foxglove and delphinium.


A lone lupin.  I guess they didn't self seed quite like I hoped.

Identify?


I have some shrubs that I need identifying.  If I like them, I'm going to propagate them and put the babies in more practical locations.  Do you have any idea what they are?
