Spring is here...Finally!

After a horrible winter with record snow falls spring is finally here! Flowers are blooming and it's been so warm. It's wonderful.

I'm having fun working out in the yard. We've been planting fruit trees and bushes this past weekend and Dave and I went to Lowes and got two more trees last night. So much garden stuff is out already I'm resisting the veggies can't plant those until end of May but the TREES oh I can't stop planting trees. We now have seven raspberry bushes, (2 black, 2 red, 2 yellow, and a purple), 2 blueberry bushes, 2 cherry trees and a peach tree planted in the yard.

I have strawberries growing in a hanging planter and I plan on getting a pie cherry tree and maybe a plum before it's all over. Good thing we have a large yard. We've also started cleaning up the garden area so we can get it plowed and fertilized to be ready for planting. I so enjoy living in the country there is nothing like home grown produce.
