Garden – Monkey Business

August Garden

This month has gone by so fast. Since my last post, I went to the Zac Brown Band concert with my husband. We had a great time – but walking over a mile back to our car in heels…not so good. But it was worth it.

Enjoying the concert :)

Last Friday I went out with a girlfriend of mine. We had an awesome time but I went a little overboard. So much so that I missed going to my best friend’s house the next day. That was a real bummer, but I am looking forward to seeing her this weekend.

Girl's Night

Sunday my uncle and his family stopped by on their way back from PA. It was so nice to see them. The girls are getting so big! Then my brother and his girlfriend stopped by on their way back from Boston. It was so great to spend some time with them. I can’t wait to go camping with everyone.

Since this post is supposed to be about my garden, here are some new pictures.

More Roses

Anemone

I love these colors

July Garden

Here are a few new pictures from the garden. The hydrangea’s are really coming in and and the lilies are blooming. Unfortunately, not all at the same time, so my lily garden isn’t having the effect I had wanted, but I guess I will continue to get new blooms for awhile as some of the early bloomers die off.

I love the blue!

And our grass starting to come in pretty well…

June Garden

As I enjoy an evening at home with my husband and the dogs (we are dog-sitting for my parents this week), I figured I finally had the time to post some pictures of my gardens. We have been doing a lot of work outside the past couple weeks, so there are a lot. I will also have some pictures of our yard, where Jason has leveled out the back and is getting ready to seed. Unfortunately, he can’t seed until next week because we are going to be out of town for four days and we aren’t expecting rain.

By the way – I can’t wait to go camping this weekend. This will be our third annual Fourth of July camping trip in Lake George with my best friend Christine and her husband, Freddy. We will also be joined by Freddy’s sister Laura and her husband Alex. It should be a lot of fun and we are going tubing on Saturday, which will be a first for me.

New potted plant - Zinnias I believe.

New azalea garden we put in recently. Both are red.
