spring fever


Wow, I haven't posted on here in a long time, sorry! Matt has been on spring break and I guess I've just been savoring the time with him. We get home from work in the evenings and neither of us use the computer for the rest of the night! Well that might be an exaggeration, but its been lovely to spend time together without the glow of the screen on his face. I can't wait for life post-grad!!







In the mean time, we've been getting spring fever around here - windows open, dinners on the porch, walks downtown and growing plants! We are really excited about this whole plant endeavor, it was Matt's idea actually. He is on a big kick right now about how plants are so good for purifying the air we breathe. Sounds good to me, so now we're growing basil, rosemary, aloe and an umbrella plant. Having just this little bit of green life in our house is so exciting! Especially the basil, watching those babies grow from seed up is just too exciting. We just might have sung a song and did a little dance when they sprouted. A little excessive? Sure, but these little herblets are going to be so well taken care of and delicious! 





What do you plant for spring? Or maybe you have a yard with a real garden? Check out this urban garden, those ideas are so genius! Can't wait for a time when we have the space and resources for something like that. The upside down are my favorite! Happy planting!
