Flowers

It's safe to say I'm obsessed with hydrangeas....and guess what?!?! I finally have them in my yard!!! YAH!!!!!! I am so excited but sooo sooo sore right now. That was some back breaking work right there. Thank goodness the other flowerbed is already prepped. Removing the grass....never again! I wore gloves and still have blisters.

One thing I did discover while digging...we have great soil! So many earthworms....and bricks?!?! FML! WHO the heck buries bricks?!?!?!?! I thought after removing that brick flowerbed I was done. Not again!!! Complete misery! Job took a lot more work and effort than expected. Putting down the yard fabric pins were horrible because I kept hitting bricks. Ouch!

I got some gorgeous brown mulch...which within 5 minutes of laying it down Wes ran the lawn mower right by and got grass clippings all in it. UGH! So even more work because out came the rack. I let this time slide but I told him if he does it again it's all him buddy!

I wanted to line the bed with something....monkey grass maybe....but Lowes nor the nursery by my house had any. So I just decided to go with the next best thing. Bricks. Haha ironic right?!

The plants seem so small right now, only 3 gals, but I know they will grow up fast and big. Ekk can't wait!!

The other bed will probably be finished next month! Haha I need a loooong break!
