I'll start with my yard.
 |
| The daffodils are blooming in my front yard. I know that there will be more snow, because my daffodils always get snowed on. |
 |
| This is a blue spruce, which is Utah's state tree. When we moved to Hyde Park, we were able to put Christmas lights and a star on top of this tree. It has doubled in size! |
 |
| Deer Berries in the orchard. I love to see the deer in Hyde Park! But don't like cleaning up after them. |
 |
| My tulips are just poking out through last year's debris. I need to get it cleaned out. When the tulips bloom, I have to keep them sprayed with deer repellent or the deer will eat them. When the tulips are done, the lamb's ear grows over them, and attracts butterflies, hummingbirds and bees. |
 |
| This is our little orchard. There are 2 apple trees, 2 pie cherry trees, 1 peach tree and 1 pear tree. The peach tree produces bad fruit. We're going to cut it down and put a big, juicy plum tree in it's place. |
 |
| This is our backyard. The iris in the lower, right corner are popping up and need to be cleaned out. There are 2 small fruit trees, further back by the white fence. An awesome peach and a not so awesome plum. |
 |
| Here's a closer look at our little peach and plumb trees. My Dad and step-Mother gave these to us about 4 years ago. They were volunteers in their huge garden area. Last year was the first time either produced fruit. The peach is incredible. I think the plum is a wild Pottawatamie plum. |
 |
| This is our little vegetable garden. We'll plant peas, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, Lima beans, cantaloupe, radishes, Swiss chard, kohlrabi, carrots and maybe some corn. We can't plant until the ground is dry enough to run the rototiller. |
