Our Backyard this morning!
I was at the Dollar store the other day and they had a whole bunch of different seed packets priced 10 cents each, and I could not resist. I bought a whole bunch and started them already inside, I can't put them outside today, but I have on other sunny days. Some have already sprouted, hopefully I will have a good turn out. I am not sure what I am going to do with them all, but I felt like growing this year and spring is in the air, although not quite here!

Wow, you're ambitous with all your seeds! We have a garden, but I'm always way late getting anything started. You're giving me spring fever! Cute little trays and labels, too!
Me, too, on the spring fever thing. Maybe I should get busy with some flowers I want to plant. We'll see how motivated/ambitious I am in the next few weeks. I want Moon flowers so bad... last year I planted them too late! :(
Your backyard looked the same as ours today. Happy St. Patty's Day!
And yum... can I come eat lunch at your house?
Hey! I have been checking your blog religiously since I talked to you last! :) Looks like you're keeping busy. Our yard looked like that this morning too:( I was totally bummed out since we have been having 70 degree weather a couple days before this! Happy St. Patricks Day!

Hey! If you run out of room you can plant flowers at my house. We have a ton of landscaping to do. I'd better not go to crazy with the veggie garden thing this year. I'll be to big and hot to garden this summer and to busy in Aug to harvest. See you this weekend.
