Busy!
and here.....
and here....
and watching our wildflowers grow....
and grow.....
and grow.....
and these beauties are waiting to be planted in their new homes.....
after we clean up the mess that last nights torrential rain made.....on a side note.....this muddy mess will hopefully turn into grass on Friday.....the plan is to lay 3,300 square feet of sod down....with the help of hubby and my big boy.
And I picked up these great finds....thank you Fern and Sue! These too will be gettin' a makeover.
as is Charlie.So....in short....I've got lots of projects going on....we've been doing lots of gardening....building....and painting. This is the first time since we've lived here that we are finally getting to the outside....most of our time had been spent on making the inside more "us".....and now we're makin' the outside more "us" too.
And I haven't forgotten about the bike makeover or porch....those things are all being worked on right now....and I'll be sure and share them with you when they're done.
xoxo, Andrea



Oh my, Andrea, your garden is divine! And taking a break once in a while for that kind of treat, should be taking a break all the time. ^_^
ReplyDeleteHope your week is great so far. xx
What sweetness around you home....my flowers need planting too..it has been so so cold and damp but Mr. Sun is out today so I feel like I need to get out too. Your "BABIES" are growing up. So so sweet. xoxoxoxo
ReplyDeleteHi Andrea- your garden looks beautiful and your babies are just precious!

It always amazes me how much time I spend planting each year. My gardens are full, yet I somehow find space for more plants.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with all your projects, can't wait to see the final results.
I love planting flowers...yours are beautiful! Oh, and your sweet babies...they are getting big! Have a beautiful day Andrea!

ReplyDeleteYour flowers are so pretty. The picture of where the rains passed through makes me think that you must be in Texas maybe? My brother emailed pictures from his home in New Braunfels with water rushing through the yard for a couple of hours.
