Oops

Yeah, not sure what happened to the pictures of the hyacinth and the trees. Sorry you missed out on that. Maybe you can just imagine them...there...aren't they beautiful?

We got all 3 trees planted this weekend - a Cherry Kwanzan in the front and a Flowering Bradford Pear and a Drummond Red Maple in the back. Mark did a great job putting some stakes in the ground and securing the trees, just in time for the howling winds that night. Nobody on our street has a fence in the back yet, so the wind just comes rushing through the houses, catching our young trees in the process.

Then, we planted 7 boxwoods, 6 blue rug junipers, and 2 hostas (sounds like the Twelve Days of Christmas - we do have a pear tree, just no partridge). Anyway, we have 3 more boxwoods and 2 dwarf alberta spruces to put in the ground.

It's looking great. We mulched our front garden area and let me tell you, that makes all the difference in the world. Forget trying to plant, we should have just mulched it right off the bat.

It's coming along. We're wanting to plant a garden in the back (with herbs and veggies). If you have any great recommendations, send them our way.

OK...I'm not going to attempt to post any pictures today.
