What a Beautiful Day!

Hi all! I know it's been a few days since my last post, but DH and I (and the in-laws) have been busy bees outside in the yard! We have some pesky lil (GINORMUS) rocks that we are trying to get rid of so our yard looks like a nice, level yard that is easily mowed. Aside from that we are also moving trees, shrubs, plants, etc. (to my liking). Here's a picture of Dan on the tractor/back ho doing what he does best -- making a mess!

I have also been trying my green thumb on some posies around the house. Here's one of my hanging baskets.

In one of my baskets I have a new friend, a bird friend, her name is Bella...Bella has 3 robin eggs in her nest in my brand new basket! Every time we go on the porch she flies away. Yesterday between working and eating outside, we weren't sure if she was going to come back or not. It must have been late last night or this morning but she's back and we are glad for her babies sake. Here's a picture of our newest neighbor -- Bella.

There are also tons of flowers blooming around the yard. The people that lived here before had a small fortune in plants! They are just so sparatically placed that we are just trying to get them in some sort of order (flower beds, etc.). I will be posting more pics of our yard in bloom in the days to come...right now we have beautiful dark purple iris's starting to open up! I can't wait to share!

Have a Happy Memorial Day and enjoy the beautiful weather before it rains!

Later,

Becky
