Gardening

Some of you may know that I am working at a garden center called Sun River Gardens, its really fun and definitely inspires me to start gardening. What also inspires me is my employee discount :) While at the book store reading books on herb gardening I was surprised to see that you can plant in just about anything that you can drill some holes into. I planted flowers in a broken watering can from work, and some galvanized tins. Miriam found a great window box at Savers and a few others. We had a blast shopping for plants and we definitely have the planting bug. The one thing I have found challenging is.....(and im sure all the Californians can agree)...gardening in Utah is a lot different. Things that grow like wildfire in California cant grow here, things that are perennials in California are annuals here. Its a little frustrating but I learning a lot, and having fun starting a little garden of my own...even if its just in some pots.

Finished Project

This project has definitely taken me a long time to finish. When I heard that Sarah was having a baby I wanted to make her a baby blanket. I chose the colors I did because they would work for a boy or a girl.This is the first baby blanket I have made were I did the squares, so it was a little more challenging but I am happy with the result! I have been working on this on and off and Im finally finished, and it was perfect timing now that Matilda is here. :)
