DONE!!

This past Friday we planted all the rest of our bulbs. That makes a grand total of 1,116. (OK, so it wasn't quite the 1,200 I had been saying it was, but it was pretty close).

I'm just so glad it's all done. I have to admit, though, that I got the easy end of the task. Minh dug all the holes (yay for being pregnant!) I just had to kneel down (on my foam pad) place the bulbs in the hole, fertilize them, cover them back up, and water them. It really wasn't too bad--certainly not as back-breaking as raking.

Our yard should really be something to see next March/April/May.

How about a picture of your big preggo belly?

Yeah, ok. I'll make time to take and post a belly picture sometime soon.

So, I ordered 200 more bulbs yesterday ...

How am I supposed to resist a 20% off end of season sale?

I did ask permission, and I received conditional approval as long as I publicly admitted that I have a sickness. So ... my name is Minh and I have an addiction to buying bulbs.

You all may be receiving calls to participate in an intervention soon.
