Another busy weekend in the yard.. and it was "scorching" hot! 85 and 90 I believe for the weekend.. that is a little too much but we or I should say Brian managed to stay outside and do quite a bit.. Started off with a trip to Sky Nursery on Saturday for 3 truckloads full of mulch..while we were there we picked up 2 clematis plants and another strawberry plant.. alot of their plants were on sale for 40% off..woohoo..thats unusal for Sky... Sunday, went back to Sky and got John and Jessica a pretty good sized hydrangea for their anniversary since John keeps commenting on how we have too many hydrangeas..hehe.. now he has his own.. Mom came over on Sunday and we went to see John's new retaining wall..looks really good.. so professional!.. We also took a trip to Lowes and got more plants..came home, planted those then Brian built me a flower box.. finally,..putting that tablesaw to good use..lets see, we saved about 20bucks on this 1.. if he builds about 20 more of those we might have broken even on that saw..haha.. j/k.. looks good.. we just need 1 more...and the veggie garden is doing good.. peas are out and the chinese veggies are getting bigger..maybe in a month we'll have homegrown veggies.. if the squirrels dont' get to them first..

Mulch! what a difference it makes and hoping they'll keep the weeds out..for now at least

Boxes in progress..
Tada!
