what's cookin' with the clarks: flowers and shrubs and trees, oh my!

Welcome!

Welcome, everyone, to our humble blog abode! When faced with the challenge of keeping up with everyday life, home improvement projects, social engagements, and career development, it seems harder than ever to stay in touch with family and friends! So, we thought we'd try to make it a little bit easier. Here, on our blog, we hope to chronicle all of the "important stuff" in life (and some of the fun, yet unimportant, stuff as well)! We plan to post fairly frequently, so come back as often as you'd like, or feel free to "subscribe" to our blog and have our posts sent directly to your inbox!! (There's no spam, we promise!) However you choose to read our posts, just grab a cup of coffee, sit back in your most comfortable living room chair, put your laptop on your lap, and enjoy!

Nathan and I spent entirely too much time at our local garden center yesterday. Their seemingly endless variety of flowers, plants and garden accessories kept us there for over 2 hours, but ultimately, we only bought 4 plants for our "container garden" on our deck! Four plants! Pitiful, I know! Hopefully our next trip will be more successful. Until then, take a look at some of the photos below - what a selection!
