As many of you know, Rob has a tendency to get a new hobby a day. And he always gets way into these hobbies and goes all out. Well, the latest phase of Rob's renaissance is gardening. While the vegetable garden is absolutely insane (we will never be able to eat all of this food), we have also done what we could in the floral department. I took the following photos a few months ago when everything was in nice spring bloom. I hadn't posted them yet, because I was waiting for our other flowers to bloom come summer. Well summer kind of snuck up on me and its now 100+ degrees every day and our flowers are really struggling. So I post these older photos to remind myself of the beautiful spring days when leaving to house to walk around the back yard was a treat instead of a race to get back inside before a heat stroke comes on. Maybe if the temperature drops below 95 again I'll go take current pictures of the yard, but for now, this will have to do. Oh, and as a side note, I took these pictures, not Rob! I think I did a pretty good job on some of them!
