Every year in the month of May is a very busy month for us. May is the month of planting the Brownie's dad's several cemeteries and mortuaries in our area. We are never sure why we get ourselves into this but we do it every year.
We are going to take you on our journey of planting.
We start with several flats of flowers.
This year we did things a little differently. Usually we each take our own flat and then pop the flowers as we go. But this year the Muffin went up early and started popping flowers before the Brownie got there. Planting goes much faster once the flowers our popped.
Once the flowers our popped, we plant!
And plant some more.
There is never a year that goes by when we plant that we don't end up with really dirty pants,
holes in our jeans,
and dirty fingers even when we wear gloves.
After we finish with each flat we toss it aside and go on to the next one.
And before we know it we are halfway!
We were lucky this time because we even had a little bit of help.
And after 2 days we finally finished this huge circle of flowers.
All our empty flats and believe it or not this was only the beginning of our planting.
Last step the watering
Now we can go home and get a good night sleep and get ready for the next day of planting.
