Here are a few pictures of the backyard. It was hard to get a good picture of the whole thing. We put in 22 tons of rock around the edges. 2 garden L shaped beds that are 12 feet long and 4 feet wide and 18 inches deep. We (well, they) also put in curbing and sod. The whole yard is set up on timed irrigation including lines laid under the rock for future plants. (Citrus trees are soon to follow) The garden is doing well. We have probably 80 tomatoes between 10 plants that are waiting for a little warmer weather to turn red. We also have several peppers. This weekend Seth also planted 3 different kinds of melons, cucumbers, yellow and green zucchini and way too much okra. Lily planted every seed this weekend. She loves being in the garden with her Dad.
The flower picture is one Seth asked me to take for specifically for Katie. It is from one of our Passion vines.

WONDERFUL!! An oasis in the desert!!
I love it! I'm coming to visit next year when we have snow on the ground in March!
Looks so lovely! Exactly the opposite of our yard/garden!
Great job on the yard! We plan on moving soon and the backyard is a blank slate, but I have no idea where to begin!! I've always wanted my own garden. I just need to get educated on what to plant and how to keep it all alive!
Ray will be so jealous when I show him the pictures. It is beautiful and plentiful. Nice job.
Beautiful job on the yard! Also beautiful pictures of the girls in their Easter dresses!
Wow... that looks SO GOOD!!!
Looks wonderful - you can tell Seth put a lot of love and work into it.
And I love the picture of the passion vine. I think I saw a ton of those in a garden down in Columbia (SC) and loved them there, so I am thinking that would work here.
Oh my goodness! It is LOVELY! I can't wait to have a garden & I'm jealous of the people who get to start theirs already!
