I haven't posted anything lately because I have so crazy busy that I haven't had anything to post about that is fun or time to post. My life is busier than ever. I have so many little jobs but they sure add up to being supper busy! I now babysit a girl Brooklyn's age 3 times a week after school. And between babysitting her and then Claire & Jessica...I always have extra kids at my house. The first thing Easton asks me in the morning is "Who is coming over to play today". Then I still clean at least 2 nights a week. Mutual on Wednesday nights. I do paperwork for Eric's work still. And I run and get supplies for them as well. Then my new hobby...working in the yard! It is a lot of work...and it is addicting. I kept telling myself to stop buying new plants and I kept doing it anyways. Here are some pictures of a few of my projects!
This is my garden..the seeds are coming up..so I did at least one thing right!
I planted Watermelon, cucumbers, Carrots, onions, pumpkins, tomatoes, & Strawberries.
I love my hanging plants! I just love color!
My strawberry plant! I can't wait to eat that Strawberry!!!
My relaxation spot...too bad I don't have time to use it!
I love IVY! I planted this...I hope it keeps growing.
You can't see the flowers to well...but we have lots of flowers planted in the front. You can see my hanging plants on the house and the big rose bushes in front of the house. I just cut off the roses yesterday so you can't see too many..give them a day or so and they will be full again! Just don't notice the grass...we have to plant sod this fall. We tried to plant seed but the birds kept eating the seed and it didn't grow very well..but boy the weeds grew!
I was so excited to see that all my bulbs were coming up!
I can't wait until they bloom!
More ivy that will grow around the arch...I hope it grows fast..I am too impatient!
Now Eric's big project that he has been working on for the last two weeks!
Our backyard kid zone!

They got the play boat on the left (needs some TLC though),
Trampoline (which they love) and now the playset!!!
No need to go to the park again! yeah
You guys look like you've done a lot! It looks nice! Just make sure and use that relaxation spot sometime!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love your swing "relaxation spot." your yard looks great, i'm jealous of all that space. you are a busy mama!
ReplyDeleteI love your hanging baskets! Your house looks SO cute, I love it all. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI still haven't seen your backyard. We need to find a chance with your busy schedule to hang out...Love all of the stuff you have done though. You amaze me.
ReplyDeleteit looks better in person. Good job! I know how much work a yard is but come summer, you will be amazed!
ReplyDeleteLook at you and your green thumb! I want to come see you guys and your awesome house so bad! That looks so much fun for the kids. Your garden is growing so fast, my peas are only about three inches high!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Marinda. I have a similar addiction (working in the yard), but it's so relaxing AND fun! The kids love to "help" too. Our harvest here in Texas is about over but the produce has been great!
ReplyDeleteCute home. Wish we could be closer to come see it!
What a beautiful place you have! I got flower/garden boxes (3) for Mother's Day and I'm just wondering if its too late to plant anything? You look like a pro, please let me know.
ReplyDeleteThat relaxation spot does look lovely. Your yard looks so big and nice. Our backyard is still dirt and rocks. But I have got big dreams. Big dreams.
