Weeding in the Garden

This afternoon we finally got around to working out in the garden. I put "weeding around the bird bath" on the agenda for this week in an attempt to start getting the garden ready for spring. Once we get all the beds cleared out, we can start planting. Gabriel and Eden were great helpers in clearing out the dead nasturtiums and the dead daylilies, as well as a host of weeds.



Here are the dead daylilies which we cleared out . . .


. . . to then discover new growth underneath all the dead leaves. It looks like we'll surely have daylilies again this spring.


Ria enjoyed being outside with us and had fun going inside the bamboo teepee.


Later on, Ria, the great imitator, relaxed on the chair with Gabriel.
