Gardening

I cannot believe that I am dying to get into my gardens. I have never been good at this. And I have really never cared all that much. I used to have pots of flowers that I would put out in the spring and get sick of taking care of by mid summer.

But since we moved here, I really want to get into my flower beds and fix them up. I am even getting into planning them. Seriously, who took over my body??




Our mess of a front Garden



Same garden after we started over




We started with the front and side yards. We did the front but the side was so bad we hired that out. And it is amazing.



The mess of a side yard/patio. Too overwhelming to even relaxing in




The amazing results from Joe at Spectrum Landscaping.

I could be the influence of some really good friends, Annette and Laura, who have dirt running through their veins. They are soooooooo good to help me make the right decisions. They are a full of great knowledge that I take full advantage of.

So this weekend we are going to tackle the back garden and see if we cannot bring it to life. I am honestly looking forward to it.




Our lifeless backyard that should soon be colorful and full of life. (Gee, why get rid of this depressing gray)
