garden touring

The other night, my brother and his wife invited us for dinner. They just finished phase number two of their stellar garden installation. I took a few pictures, just for you.

Can you guess my sweet sister-in-law's favorite color?


 It's green. Like her thumb.


Girlfriend knows how to garden.

 Every square inch is meticulously manicured.

 A beautiful summer night... 
with one of our favorite families.
Love them.

What a beautiful garden, and indeed it reminds me of your own orderly prettiness about the house.
