Hello Everyone!!!!

I have missed you all so so much! Ive just been a super busy girl here the last couple months. I moved into my new house and have been unpacking and gardening every day since. Before I was so worried about having an area to plant my semp bed and now I have it...... (Note: A BIG work in progress)

So many have helped me by sending me semps! Thank you all. I have a lot to update you guys on but here are some pic's of my new semp bed. This bed had at least a few hundred rocks (some boulders) along with weeds that needed to come out before we could do anything with it.

Here is a before pic of the bed...not a great shot but you can kind of see how much crapola was in there that needed to come out...

For the plant markers we used these alluminum paint brushes, took the bristles off, and take a hammer to flatten them out. I used my dad's dymo label maker and attached the names on the markers...
