Join the Garden Party!!
I don’t have much of a garden, but I do have a little area around the front of my house. I didn’t buy very much this year (spent it all on the new camera – which I did not use for these pictures. I don’t have my desktop computer back yet) but I just love some of the new/old items I got to plant in, like this old rust wagon! ?
You would think with all of the rain we’ve had that would help my plants, but actually I feel like they’re looking a little sad. But I threw together a little collage of what’s around the front of my house for the party.

Kristen, the hosta's are about the only thing I CAN grow with no effort! LOL — they we cuts from my mom's hostas several years ago – I planted 2 of them and they just get bigger every year – I actually need to thin mine out.
Sorry, don't know any secrets, they just grow for me! LOL

Great blog.. Just found it today. The only problem I had was trying to read the read print against the red background. Adorable family by the way. I'll be back! 🙂

Oh well after I posted your background went away and it is white so I can read everything now. I think my computer is on the fritz.

SO cute and inviting! Love the country personality of the entry.
Just make sure that flag gets turned around 🙂 (The flag should always be hung with the blue at the top left)
Nice blog!

Yours look much better than mine! We went on a 10 day trip and didn't have anyone available to water so had to leave the plants in the bathtub (with an inch of water). I have lost two so far due to over-watering, possibly a third. Also, my husband forgot to leave the light on when he left the house so they sat in the dark for 10 days. I'm sure that didn't help their mood. 🙁

For someone that hasn't spent money this season you have some beautiful blooms going on! I always shop the clearance sales to pick up some plants. One summer I got 6 inch geraniums for $0.10 each! I went crazy and my backyard containers were filled with bright red blooms!
