It's GORGEOUS here today! 60 degrees, slight breeze, blue skies....can't complain about that.
We spent the ENTIRE weekend working on the flower bed improvement around the house...and WHAT A PROJECT! We hauled lots of dirt with lots of wheelbarrow trips (reminded me of my 4-H days), lots of shoveling/tilling and then some planting/mulching. Overall, it was a pretty fun project and very rewarding.
Unfortunately, because we spent our time on this proejct, we missed the crawfish boil festival we wanted to go to....but only because on Saturday it ended up NOT raining, like they said it would, so we took advantage of it! Which, after all was said and done....we were SOOOOOO glad we split it up in two days!
Here are some pictures of the project!

IN BETWEEN:
Chad was pretty proud of our first "home improvement" purchase- the wheel barrow. The wheel barrow and I were great friends over the course of this project. And thanks to it, I got a great glute and core workout! yay!
AFTER: (:-)
What we learned from this project:
-we can't wait to OWN a home
-we really enjoy these hands on projects
-there were no big fights or spouses abused during this project :-)
-it's times like these that we definitely really hate having everyone so far away....it would have been a fun project to have people over and help with!
-beer tastes way too good after hardwork outside all day!
Have a good week everybody!
