Yard Work!

The weather was so beautiful today!! After I waited for the plumber to unclog BOTH of my toilets this morning (early morning), my mom and I decided to tackle my yard. We spent practically the whole day doing yard work! We bought some stones and made planters, we bought a ton of plants and flowers, moved some old bushes/flowers around, and planted all the new stuff! And we also mulched around my tree! It looks 100 times better than it did. I wish I had some before pics but all I have is after pics. So here they are!!

I love all the pretty flowers!!


The right flower bed!




This is the left flower bed!




These are the flower beds we made! Aren't the stones nice?!? I love the red flowers I planted on the right!!

So now I am VERY sunburned! Blah... And I didn't have time to run today. Literally couldn't have fit it in if I wanted to!! Plus my right calf muscle is still bothering me from running the other day. Crazy how much one week off can set you back. I work all weekend so not too much running going to get done. Next week though, it's on!! Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

    Looks amazing! Totally love the stones...and you house is so adorable too.

    First sunburn of the year is inevitable. When we are that pale after a long winter no matter what SPF we lather on its bound to happen. Just keep reapplying lotion over the next week so you don't peel. Nothing is worst than peeling.
