April and May, comings and goings!

April and May have both come and almost gone and I don't know where they went! It's been a great few months. Tom celebrated his 32nd Birthday on Easter Sunday and it was a good day! I had my surgery that weekend, as well, so I wasn't much fun and I forgot to take pictures of any of it! AHHH! I feel so bad! But, it was a good day! I love Tom so much and I'm so grateful for him in my life!



We have spent the last couple of months, fixing up the yard and planting! We've had a lot of fun doing it! We haven't been able to do a lot, because of all the roots in the backyard, but we've been doing what we can!



We started by clearing out a lot of the trees and shrubs that were in the backyard and between our yard and the neighbor's. I wish we had taken more pictures while we were doing it! We cut down some big trees that were far out of our comfort zone and know-how! But, we had a great time and lots of laughs! We still have a long way to go, but it looks a lot better than it did!




We planted a bunch of little bushes around the porch and they've really started to take off this year! We decided to put a little stone wall/border around them and I really like it so far! We may add more, eventually, but it's a great start!




I potted some more hanging pots again this year and I'm really happy with them! I definitely don't have a green thumb, but I'm sure trying!




We don't have anywhere that we can plant a garden in the ground, so we decided to do some pots and they all seem to be doing well! We have a raspberry plant, peas, green beans, strawberries and a tomatoe plant! We'll see if we actually get some food from them!


I also had my piano recital a few days ago and they all did so well! I had all 23 of them play in the same recital and it went really well! I made the mistake of telling them there was a little treat for each of them BEFORE I tried to get them together for a picture... so, needless to say, we didn't get one. OOOPs! But they all did so well! I'm very proud of all of them!
