Tommy's Green Thumb

I'm so glad Tommy has a green thumb, because I certainly don't. Well, that's not entirely true. I'm sure my thumbs are green enough, I just can't seem to remember to water anything. Tommy is constantly reminding me to "please water the plants babe" every morning before he goes to work. Even after that I still forget - A LOT! The pic on the left is from our side yard. It looks better when the roses are blooming, but whatever. Either way, hes got it looking way better than I ever could. I'm not saying that I don't help, but he's really got to spell it out for me. I know what I like, I just don't know where to put it. I guess Tommy gets this eye for plants from his mom...they have plants, trees, bushes, you name it, all over the place at their house. My mom won't even take a plant from us, she's too afraid of killing it. I just thought I'd brag on my husband a little, he works really hard on the yard and he's got it looking especially good this year. Now if I can just get my patio furniture and tell my neighbor to shut his grimy dogs up so we can go outside and enjoy it all!
