Late comes Early...comes Late?

Since my last post mentioned that Mother's Day is when we can officially begin planting here in Colorado - and I rushed out and planted a whole bunch of stuff a week early – because the weather was so good! – and the people in the nursery said we could have planted early! –

(Grumble. Grumble.)
You know, what can I say? At least there's some nice irony for my blog, right?

Mother's Day was still quite simple and lovely and perfect in all the important ways.

But the poor plants!
