I thought I'd better post again since I haven't blogged in almost a month.
Since the last post we've traveled to Nebraska to see the Kruschels and to Minnesota to see the Kruschels, the Schewes, and the New Mr. & Mrs. Rigge. Fun was had at both places and it was great to see family and friends and how big the nieces and nephews have gotten!
While we were in Minnesota, Mom and Dad K were generous enough to share some of their garden with us! THANK YOU!
Here's the work in progress:
It was decided that we should do our flower garden in this section of yard due to the sunlight and lack of neighbor's vines. Here's hubby hard at work removing the grass. We transplanted the grass here:
Decided here to not plant anything! This way we can somewhat control the pesky vines from the neighbors yard. Yes the hibiscus will be moved soon.
This is where the flower garden will be, this is NOT where the plants will be located. We are hoping to make this a bit bigger also.
Also a GREAT BIG THANK YOU to Mom and Dad U for the help chopping down crap in our yard.
Here's the beginning to the pile of crap chopped down. On a side note, look at the bottom left corner of the picture, that is the strange orange and purple mystery item found in our back yard. After long deliberation it was determined to be a root and thus removed from the premise.
Here's the boys chopping down a maple tree that was growing through the fence.
And what's mom doing during all of this hard chopping?
Playing with her Ipod of course!
Before we go, here's a look at some of our summer blooms!
snapdragons
lilies
blue hydrangeas
pink hydrangeas
Tonight I will leave you with this thought:
Why isn't 11 pronounced onety one?
