I cannot believe Auntie has been gone a week? Where does time go!

Not a good picture of Auntie as she was staring into the sun, but the short nails look great, and I promised you all a picture.

Now these will be done once a month and all is set!

We have done nothing but work in the yard and Husb also spent some time up at Sissy's and her garden has come together.  It looks so good, and it was a lot of work.

We got an estimate to put underground sprinklers in the back yard and also for sod.  The downside is they cannot get to us until late August, early September, but we are willing to wait and have a lot more prep work to do before this can happen. However, we will be living in a sea of dirt for four months!

We have decided that the driveway will happen next year and must save funds for that project. I have funds set aside for the sod and undergrounds.

There are days when I think we are getting nowhere, and then I see how far we have come and relax.

This is a picture of about where we started.






















This is how it looks now, and we still have to lift each edger and power wash and place back straight.

I painted the old Cedar above ground beds and will plant my Herbs in one and flowers in the others.

Just have to decide what.

I did get all my hanging baskets done and my pots and they look so good, pictures later.

At present Husb is power washing landscaping stones and I am picking more river rock.

I see river rock in my sleep!




This is river rock that we have picked and cleaned, and it will go to my little Sisters house eventually.






















This is the area I spent 2.5 hours on this morning, and it will take me all week long several hours a day to get all this river rock up.  There are also three ugly large roots that need to come out, but the Husb will do that.


















Now I must get into the shower and clean up as Little Sister is getting married at the Court House this afternoon and we will meet them for Mexican Food to celebrate.  After all it is Cinco de Mayo!

Sissy and I wanted to be flower girls and Husb wanted to be the ring bearer, and our plan was vetoed?

Now really, Sis and I thought it was a great plan.

Stay tuned for more exciting adventures from the trenches.

Hugs,

Kay
























Crazy week!

Yes, this is me!  It has been a busy week. No Car, Sissy overbooked. (This has been resolved, for the moment) and I hauled 40 large landscap...
