OUR YARD

As many people know, I often do some complaining and a lot of teasing about Jeff and the amount of energy, money and time that he spends on our yard. Well, yesterday was no exception.....while he was at work a truck showed up at our house and dumped 10 yards of beauty bark on our driveway. It was a lot of work, but with all of his helpers Jeff was able to get it all moved around to the backyard last night.

This is the area where most of the beauty bark got "dumped". The kids call all of the flowerbeds "daddy's gardens" so now we have yet one more "garden" that's going to need weeding! Jeff did finally agree last night (when he was at about yard no. 6 of hauling beauty bark) that he wouldn't tear out anymore grass and create anymore gardens........at least not anytime soon!

This flowerbed out front didn't get any new beauty bark, but it is one of my favorites and it does show how all of Jeff's time and energy keeps the yard looking good. I have been able to enjoy these beautiful flowers every time I drive in and out of our driveway for the past couple of weeks. I do love our yard!!
