We worked hard in the front yard to get it back in shape this past weekend. It always amazes me just how FAST weeds can get going.....a little rain...a little warmth...then BAMO...WEED FEST!! Now how come the things we want to grow don't always have such luck? Go figure. Every thing is all mulched now, fresh and ready to go. In a couple weeks I'll plant just a few annuals in some spots here and there. We are hosting Easter dinner this year for my side....so I'm glad the weather was nice enough to get some outdoor work done. It felt good to be out in the sun and to mark another task off the spring to do list...tell summer to hurry on up!
Start: Overgrown and weeds everywhere
Weeds gone, old mulch scraped off
All done!!
Well, almost. We will plant some pretties later...we are still getting light frosts some mornings. Looks kind of bare now but it won't once the weeping cherry blooms then leaves out. There are a few hostas there that will pop up soon, their first leaves are poking though. There's another bed on the other side not shown in the picture....we separated and replanted a hosta clump that has gotten large....yeah free plants!
My helper.
Here is my youngest, he's 9. Show me a 9 yr old boy who doesn't like to dig in the dirt
