Summer Vacation Project No. 1 : Herb Garden

David and I took a week off from work...we needed a BREAK! His parents came to visit Tuesday through Friday, and while they were here, we put them to work! Ever since we moved into our house, I've been wanting an herb garden in the backyard. So David's dad brought up all his saws and building supplies to help us (David) build it!

Before...
Our supplies...
We used untreated cedar - David's dad said that termites stay away from cedar and I wanted untreated wood because I read somewhere that if you use treated wood, the chemicals can seep into the soil.

Sawing away...

All done!!! Now all we need to do is clear out the grass and fill the flower bed with soil and herbs!! YAY!! Doesn't it look great?!?
