So many photos! We have spent the weekend getting our photo galleries updated. Now you can see the progress of last year's gardens, our rose garden, the bulb garden, and more! Plus we've got progress of the seedlings from when we planted seeds on the 18th through April 1. So much growth!

Seedling pics from April 1. The seeds I got 5 days ago are popping up, as are the eggplant and peppers. It's amazing that some of these seeds are from the 2016-18 grow years!
