Lovely Weekend

Hello everyone. had a wonderful weekend. Peter and I were able to get a lot done with our yard. We have started to finish our side yard. I will post some pictures when we are further along. We are in the process of getting rid of the grass, and doing a rock garden. Peter was able to rototill the grass, and we got a good chunk of the weed barrier down. I will love the lower maintenance on that side, and it will look great with river rock in place, and Crape Myrtle. The Myrtle trees are small right now, but should grow up to be beautiful trees with crimson flowers.  Also we plan to integrate some nice ground cover. I can't wait to get it finished.

While Peter was working on the side, I spent some time weeding, and pruning up some of the bushes. I also spent some time trimming up my roses. One of them was so laden with flowers that a lot of the branches were bent all the way to the ground. So, I trimmed that rose way back and made a bouquet. Here is a picture. I hope the rest of my roses do as well as this one has.

I'm hoping to be a little less lax on posting to my blog. Until next time thank for listening.
