Landscaping
We have needed to get shredded oak mulch for a while, but just didn't find the time. Well this year it got done and I am so happy. Here are the pictures to prove it. Why didn't we do it sooner?

Here's a few more pictures.....
I have lots of pretty daffodils, which Anna loves to pick. I will definitely be sad when they are done blooming.


This is behind the house, but I was only able to do part of it. I ran out of mulch and I have rocks to pick up first. Hopefully I can get my kids to help me pick up rocks so we can replace the ugly rocks with shredded bark.

Landscape Work....
I should of taken a picture before I started, but forgot. There was a big evergreen bush that covered the whole curved area up to where the green shovel lays. It was big and ugly. I decided this year to get rid of it, so the kids and I can plant some flowers and herbs.

Before:

I hauled out probably 8 red wagon's of rocks from that area. There were so many rocks in there, but now they are all gone. I then hauled in 4 red wagons of dirt. I have to say it looks really nice. Now I need to find a fence tall enough to keep the dogs out, but not to tall. Then we will have to go and pick out some flowers and I think I already have some herb seeds.

After:

I'll post some pictures in a month or so when we get it all done.
