Everything Is Coming Up Hostas?

A great hobby I've picked up over the last few years has been gardening. I really enjoy getting my hands dirty and watching something grow and flourish that I've tended to and watched over. My mother's kind neighbor just donated an entire trunk full of plants to me which I am very excited to get in the ground and try my luck with. All are perennials and seem pretty hardy. Tons of variety including some really interesting succulents, hostas, black-eyed Susan's, lambs ears, etc. The neighbor also instructed me on how to grow cuttings from my prized Anniversary present tree - our Weeping Japanese Cherry.
Wish me luck and I promise some before and after pictures of the yard!

I Know, I Know...

I know, I know... I have not been the best with my posts and writing as often as anyone would like, so apologies are in order! We actually have been busy with the following projects-

1. Cleaning and re staining our deck
2. Landscaping and finishing touches on yard
3. Visiting mom two weekends in a row (This past weekend was Angelique's 2nd birthday party!)
4. Paul's brother Ron was in town for a week
5. Getting ready for our yard sale this weekend
plus our camera was temporarily lost (but now is found)

Also, FYI mom is having her gallbladder removed this week, so if the postings don't come this week, they will be there next. Love you mom and hope you feel better soon!
And Dar, looking forward to seeing photos of your cross-country trip soon!
