Landscaping

We FINALLY did our landscaping. We had wanted to do it so many times but the timing never worked for us to do it since we wanted to do it ourselves. We finally made it a priority. We went to McMinnville and dropped W & J off with Mom and Joe, and we met Kay at Walker's Nursery. She helped us come up with a good layout and got us a great deal. She took S home with her, and Patrick and I headed back to Murfreesboro to drop the plants off at home and get a load of mulch. We then drove back to McMinnville to get the boys. We woke up early Saturday morning, and worked ALL day. We put the kids to bed and then went back out and planted the last few plants by the light of the van's headlights. Then we finished mulching around the plants and all the trees in the yard and the back landscaping. We finished a little after 11. We love it! It's not fancy, and we still need 2 more plants to finish it up. Nothing like a hard days work to make you really appreciate the end product.
