Ladies and Gentlemen - We have Sidewalks

Yes - sidewalks. Seems so simple and ordinary really.

Oooo, a sidewalk. And steps too. Nice brick ones...leading to the side door and the front door.

Honestly - this is big. Not having to hurl yourself onto the porch from the yard with one giant bound is actually quite an amazing thing. One may not think about sidewalks and how great they are on a daily basis, however, when you go from the have not to the have...you appreciate it.

 

 

What comes next will do doubt be full of blood, sweat and tears as we move ahead with landscaping. This means growing grass (which I am terrible at)....moving plants...buying plants...planting plants....and mulching. And I don't mean buy a couple bags of mulch and you are set. I mean - hitch up the trailer and fill'er up - twice.

As far as the yard in the back of the house...well, the current garden is really just a refuge for weeds. Owen has a nack for finding ripe veggies amongst all of the unwanted growth that I fondly call a garden.



There are tomatoes there somewhere...need to pick them for Kristy

 I look forward to the day when that prime garden location becomes a relaxing pool filled with this lounging mama. Ahhhhh! I can just picture it.

PS - I think my Kentucky Fried Life is looking better and better. Who said I'd be roughing it...I've got sidewalks!
