Last week, in the midst of crazy days preparing for our open studio, Hex and I planted the yearly annuals in my parent's front yard. We went shopping first, and it was a challenge getting all the plants in the Miata. I wish I could have taken more pictures, but Hex was anxious to get going, understandably! What a trooper (he was surrounded chin high)!

Of course traffic was heavy, so the trip was even longer. But after a few hard hours of planting and mulching, the happiness on my parent's faces made it all worth it!
