Nice Weather Brings OUTDOOR FUN!!!




...Well it's only May...But things are well under way in regards to our out door projects for the summer. So far we have done one major clean-up...raking the lawn, cleaning out the garden areas, sweeping the dirt from the driveway that has built up from the winter...That sort of thing.

A week ago we put down some grass seed in hopes of thickening up some bare spots in the front and back and guess what?!?!?! It has started to grow!!! Sadly...This is very exciting in our world!! Brad mowed the lawn for the first time this season over the weekend...Also...Very exciting...!

As soon as it warms up just a little more and a little more consistent I am going to start throwing some perennials into the ground and have a crack at gardening. For those of you who know me well...Please get up from the floor and STOP laughing at me...I think it is going to be okay....REALLY!!!...I started a herb garden inside and so far things are growing...We'll See.

We have made a small list of things that we need to try and accomplish outdoors throughout the summer. Unfortunately time seems to be sneaking by super fast so I dunno... Some of these things include: Repairing the front step...THAT is a priority... We would also like to put a seal on the driveway...not necessarily a priority, but it would be nice...You know aesthetically for the pleasure of passer byers... Should we find time among all the activity going on (planning the wedding...getting married...etc ect) we would also like to Strip and repaint the deck.

Well feel free to check back in...ohhhh say...September to see if we accomplished any of these tasks...LOL
