Well, it's been just a little less than two years since we moved into the house. Getting the interior done and getting settled in took a while. Believe it or not, there is still more to do!
But... my passion is the exterior. I have always loved landscaping. While I can no longer do the actual "hard" work (thank goodness for The Man and for those who do it for a living!), I can at least plan and provide a little assist.
When we arrived, there were some VERY old "foundation" shrubs as well as a ton of knockout roses. Neither are my thing. So... first step... pull 'em out! This was April of 2018.
Okay. Fast forward to March of 2019. I know. Nearly a year. Things move slowly here!! :) The weeds have been prolific, however!
Okay. Let's put some native stone along the bed edges, pour in some decomposed granite for mulch, and plant some natives!! Oh... and we will throw a few of our "yard art" items out there just for fun. Extra stones make nice stacks where the roadrunners can find their prey. Love native!!!
There has been some more work done... and some new plants added. But I will wait until things start to grow out a bit before posting more photos. I know it's a little much... but it's what I love so you get stuck with it! :) I am very happy with what has been done so far. It makes me smile when I turn into the driveway.
That's it for today. Just wanted to catch you up on what has been happening. There will be more to come!
Until next post...
