I Finally Have Flower Beds!

I've been working on creating the outline for my flower beds. All of the rocks have come from our yard and I have plenty more. Last week Kev's dad brought us several truck loads of dirt to go in them and the garden bed he built us. Right now I am only making two beds. This one is on the side of the house with the garage.

This bed is in the front of the house beside the porch. It doesn't get much sun. Since I know very little about plants and gardening, a friend is coming over next weekend to help me pick out plants and flowers. I will post updated pictures once everything is in the ground.

Our raised garden bed. It does get full sun. This picture was taken in the very late afternoon. I will have to purchase some manure soil to mix in with the sandy soil already in there

I finally bought a container for our sand, rocks, and shells we brought back from Ireland. I think it turned out great. Now I can display them on a shelf somewhere.

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Dogwoods

Sunday I inventoried our Dogwood Trees. We have 24 total. Some are just small bushes. There are probably about 12 big trees. I marked them so that when we are clearing brush later we won't kill them. My hope is to clear out some around them so they can all grow into large trees. They are absolutely beautiful to look at!!! I want to get some more pictures, but I got Poison Ivy on my legs the other day so I'm staying out of the woods for now.

In This Crazy Life...
