Last Shots of Summer

This summer Wayne installed a watering system for all my flower pots and flower beds. Between that and the perfect summer weather, the flowers were really pretty this year. The Morning Glories are Wayne's! I always tease him about his flowers! He planted them around the dinner bell and they turned out gorgeous! During the day they were bright blue and at night as they were closing up, they turned purple. I've never had coleus grow as big as I had this year. The milk buckets, coffee pot and milkers were compliments of the treasure trove (dump) at Wayne's folks this summer. There is no order to these pictures--which is just me!

Latest Weekend Project

This past weekend Wayne and Carlin took out an old Herb Garden. (minus the herbs) We inherited it when we moved here years ago. When we took out some bushes we had placed them in the garden, but over the years the bushes have grown so much that we could no longer see across the yard. Surrounding the garden were old railroad ties. I love having it all out of here. It will be fun come springtime to see how many old bulbs come up in the yard!

Next stage

Helpers?!

One happy kid! Finally getting to drive!

This past weekend we (Wayne) got to put in the next stage of our new flower bed area. I love how open it is with the old shed gone and the outhouse added. The dirt pile looks much better now!

Looks like things are piling up......!

While our ditches were getting cleaned out I had them dump some dirt back here. There was only sand where the old shed was and I want a flower bed in here.
