Another thing I’m loving….

So since I wrote my What I'm Loving Wednesday post this morning, I didn’t get to add another thing I love since I hadn’t gone outside yet.

I am LOVING how nice it is outside!!!! It definitely feels like Spring outside right now! One of my friends (and previous co-worker) is coming over soon to check out my new house and catch up for a bit. Then after that I’m going to make dinner and I think me and my fiancé are going to eat outside tonight!! After that, hopefully it’s still nice out, I would love to take a walk to the park which is pretty much in our backyard!!! I’ll be sure to take pictures if we end up doing that. If you live somewhere where the weather is really nice outside, then get outside and enjoy it!!

What I'm Loving Wednesday!

It's been a loooooong time since I've done a "What I'm Loving Wednesday" post, but starting today, I'm going to do one each week!! (Linking up here)

I'm LOVING that I only have 2 more classes and then it's time for Spring Break!! Yeah, I'm still excited even though I'm not going anywhere. I'm just going to be working and catching up on some school work. Oh well, at least it's a break from going to classes!

I'm LOVING my 2 kitties!!! They are my babies!! And I'm so glad that Milo is finally getting along with Mia! (Side note: Milo just attacked Mia. It seemed like it was definitely more than just playing. And, I got scratched pretty good on my foot as I was pulling him away from her)

I'm LOVING the new hand lotion from Layers by Scentsy!! The consultants were given a tube of it at Spring Sprint and I still have mine from February 2nd!! I use it all the time and need to get more!!!

I'm LOVING that there are 437 days until my wedding!!! Sure that seems like it's a loooooong time away, but it will be here before I know it!!

Here is the very first picture of us back in April of 2009!

So what are you loving this Wednesday?? Leave me a comment! Have a great day!!!

Bucket List

So I was browsing through my blog and I noticed that I only have 2 items on my bucket list. I gotta change that and I want your input about what I should add to it. So please leave me a comment with any suggestions you may have! Have a great day!

A garden at last!

Ever since I can remember, I’ve always said that when I get a house I want to have a garden!!! Well, that dream is finally going to become reality!! A few weeks ago me, my fiancé, and my dad started on the garden by digging up the sod. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be! I tried taking the shovel to dig up a piece of sod, but I’m just not strong enough! So I left that to my fiancé and dad and I just carried the pieces of sod across the yard to put under a tree.

I forgot to take a picture of the area before we started digging, but I did take one when they were almost done.

 

It wasn’t the best day to do this because of the rain, but we had already planned to do it that day so we just went for it. It wasn’t even raining that hard, just sprinkling.

Here is a picture of the garden after they were done digging up the sod.

So now, the hard part of having a garden is done. Next we need to get a rototiller so we can till the soil. But until then, I need to decide what I want to plant. I’m debating if I’m going to start any plants indoors or not because I don’t have any places inside that get enough sunlight so I’m not sure where I would put them so that they get sunlight.

I just found this awesome chart that says when to start seeds indoors and when to start them in the ground. You put in your zip code and then it tells you approximated dates of when to plant vegetables.

I also found this site on Pinterest, it’s called Sprout Robot. You plug in your zip code like the site above and it tells you what you can plant in your garden and when. You gotta love the internet! If you don’t know anything about gardening (like me) you can find all kinds of tools to help you out!!!

So question for you, what tips do you have when growing a garden? What are some easy vegetables to grow? What are hard vegetables to grow? Leave me a comment, thanks!!
