Lovely Gardening Days!!

I have had one busy week so far! I have gotten so many things crossed off my summer to do list! I finally have the veggie garden planted even though it is not everything I wanted it is planted,peppers, tomato's,cucumbers, onions, beans zucchini,and even tried some baby pumpkins and gourds we will see if they amount to anything or not. I am calling a extended summer at least thru the end of October. 
I got all of the front flower beds cleaned up and need to stick in a few plants yet and then add some mulch. Have done some painting and still have more to do. It is coming along.
I have always fed the KOI fruits so  this week we tried some veggies they love romaine lettuce and frozen baby peas! Zinny was so interested in trying the foods also she went for a little swim in the pond! I use a feeder ring that way I know how much they are eating she thought it was for the dogs also.
The lily's are starting to bloom and I have color popping through all over the place is so much fun to see what's new in the blooming department everyday.
I am flower sitting for Elayne and I sure do like having more color out front! She has the cutest solar lights in some of her pots. I will take pictures so you all can see them too. I just have to share my favorite gazing ball with you, It resides in my blue garden, well what used to be a blue garden, now it is a free for all!

I own 5 gazing balls and this is my all time favorite! 
I am enjoying all the sunny days and the sweating that comes with it, need to be outside as much as I can this week as next week I have a wedding booked so will be spending most of my time inside. Keep gardening it is so good for the soul!!
