Tiiiiimber!

This weekend was another hard-working weekend. We worked in the yard (with the help of my parents) all Saturday and Sunday.

First, we trimmed up our grapefruit tree.

Under this tree is where I plan to plant my hydrangea bushes.



I brought them inside and cleaned them up.



And enjoyed :) ...they are DELICIOUS. I love having fresh fruit right in my backyard!



My parents brought us some of their knockout roses to put around the house. I love these and definitely plan on using them in our yard!






My mom and I worked on various pots around the house. Here is one of two that are on my back patio. Love the happy colors!



My dad and the hubs chopped down TWO trees (dead fruit) and DUG UP the roots! I was so impressed.



VICTORY!! I love this picture. He is all man!



Here is our progress. We have quite a bundle to get to the brush site next weekend.

We will also start to kill off the "grass" so that we can sod in a few weeks.



Then, the Blue Angels (air show pilots) decided they would practice above our house...VERY cool--they were so close to both each other and our house! I felt like a little girl just standing there in awe.



It was a very productive weekend, but I know I will be thrilled when we have a backyard "escape" to enjoy with the pup all summer.
