Random Things Happening Behind the Scenes at Bricks ‘n Blooms

What a week it was!

Shana and I have been busy in the gardens this week getting the seedlings in the ground and planting more annuals.

She also sowed 10 different varieties of pumpkin seeds. I decided to start 5 of each and plant them in various spots on the property with the hope that one will take and not get eaten by critters SOMEWHERE.

We opened the pool last weekend and have been enjoying some pool time!

The heater has been broken though, so it’s a little chilly to swim, but the vibe is there and we are loving the pool!

My oldest daughter is graduating from Bucknell University today. So we spent all weekend in Lewisburg, PA celebrating with her and her friends.

There was a candlelight ceremony last night that was pretty epic. And I can’t believe this chapter is closing for her.

Here are a few pics from the festivities.
