LABOR day...

.... was just that!! LABOR!! (the working kind, not kid kind)
but it was my favorite type of labor!!! YARD WORK!! =)

we planted a hibiscus tree and gardenia bush... (after shortening the length of the flower box to make room for them)



filled the flower box with lots of stuff.. the kids did over 1/2 of the planting. they loved it.



planted 3 hibiscus bushes.. along the front porch (where there is never grass.) and we took brick from the flower box and put it around the tree also.



took MORE brick... and put it around the rose bushes.. i LOVE the border and having it look perfect.



LAST WEEK.... our friends/neighbors moved far far away to Indiana. I cried ONE too many tears.




I didnt cry over this part... but we did sell BIG 'D'. .. our rooster. actually, we traded him for another hen. the 'ladies' can finally be alone!



and the kids discovered they can do this. DONT REPORT ME. they jump from the club house to the trampoline.. yeah, lets mark how long before we go to urgent care.
