Yard of the Month for June!

This is our third time as Yard of the Month winners, one for each base we've lived on.  : )

At the end of the month, we get presented something (I don't know what), and then we are entered into the Yard of the Year competition.

I am proud of this area.  Besides the lavender bush, everything else is new.  While Jason was in Colorado I dug and pulled out a scruffy juniper bush and another tree/bush (with a massive root system!) so I could plant some pretties.  Brennan loves those yellow calla lilies.  It's hard to keep him from picking them every time we go outside.

I planted peonies and lilies in the flower bed as well, but they never came up.  Maybe next year.

Our strawberry plant.  Or "straw-boggies" in Brennan lingo.

Actually, it was pretty huge.  It hung out with us outside all evening. : )

Happy First Day of Summer!
