June in Review

We had an unusually cool and wet spring (wettest spring on record in the past 80 years), but the flowers were incredible.












By the first couple weeks of June it was finally time to get my seedling starts in the garden. I started EVERYTHING from seed this year. I counted my starts at one point and it was over 300!


Veggies: arugula, lettuce, komatsuna, kale, collards, quinoa, carrots, zucchini, tomatoes, acorn squash, spaghetti squash, little pumpkins, broccoli, onions, bean, cucumbers, artichoke, cilantro, basil, dill


Flowers: amaranth, marigolds, zinnias, cosmos, sunflowers, black eyed susan, bells of ireland, milkweek, statice, painted daisy, bachelor's buttons, wildflowers

















In mid-June we had a luau dinner party. It was fun, but very cool outside!










My good friend opened her lavender farm!

Kayleigh's Formal

 Kayleigh attended the formal (dinner and dance) at the local Christian high school. She still takes one class through their homeschool program and was eligible to attend the event. She went with a group of friends and looked beautiful in her dress.
