Since I really do not
need anything I asked if my family and a friend could come and help me to clean out a planting bed that is on a bank behind the pool. Every time I looked out the kitchen window, all I saw was the mess it had become from neglect. The kids and I had done a small section over the summer but I was just such a big project I felt overwhelmed. They all dug in and it looks amazing! I still have a little clean-up to do, well actually Kevin does since most of it is heavy tree roots. I have gotten some perennial starts that we put in as well. I cant wait to get more in and see how it shapes up next year. There were plants in there I didn't even see because the ground cover that was planted in there had completely covered them up & nearly choked them out!

| This boulder had a garden pond form shoved underneath it. The kids helped me dig it out a few weeks ago. |

Jake was talking Grandmas ear off while she worked.
