Oooooh, my back! (well, not yet. but I’m gonna feel it tomorrow.)
This dark patch is where my spring bulbs are starting to come up. We’ve been hanging out in the front yard and the kids were getting dangerously close to running right through them. I had to make them noticeable! I can’t wait for the flowers! The 5 small dark circles of mulch in the background are those 5 new nanking cherries I planted the other day…
The kids helped me plant peas in the back yard today – but I didn’t have a chance to plant anything else. Hopefully the rest of the week will have nice weather. I welcome spring showers, but I’m hoping they come at night. 
hahaha.
It seems that you have a nice plan for your garden. Hopefully you could post the finish pictures of your project. I can’t wait to see it.
