Sept 7th – In my garden

sept7
My thumbs are NOT green… and sadly, neither are Hubs’. Honestly, it’s not like it’s something we couldn’t be good at, we just don’t have the time or energy right now to learn and dedicate to a garden. I really want to be a good gardener though. We would love to grow our own herbs, besides the basil plant we have from Trader Joes, and veggies. My Mom bought us a Topsy Turvy as a shower gift and I would love to actually use it. My goal, when I’m complete finished with school is to learn to be a better gardener, but until then we will stick with succulents because they don’t require as much attention.

A couple weeks ago my mom found this little birdie left over from our wedding place card project, in the cushion of a chair, and I brought him home with me. I wasn’t quite sure where to put him so I stuck him in this planter. I took a couple days for Hubs to find it, but he liked it there a lot, so there he will stay for now. I’m kinda embarrassed that I haven’t cleaned up the excess plastic yet.
