Oh good, a little bit of rain.

That's what I thought when it started raining a few nights ago.  But the rain never stopped and we got pummeled with not one but two back-to-back hail storms.  Our yard was so pretty.  We had worked so hard to get it ready for Berit's birthday party over Memorial Day weekend.  Now, this is what is left.

So, needless to say, we're pretty bummed.  We had some peas that we were growing from seed that were doing so well and we were so excited (since Berit just loves peas) to watch them climb the trellis that Steve had built.  Some of the flowers seem to be making a recovery, but the veggie garden is definitely done.  Berit hasn't enjoyed all the 'pokeys' (rocks, debris etc..) that have taken over her back porch.  She prefers a much cleaner space where she can enjoy her lunch and perfect her painting skills!
