the birds are enjoying the birdbath more here...
we went out when we got up this morning and started in again...
Charlie helped, but had to take a nap in between...
and he had to get a drink of water...
that is water, not powerade...
and we worked the area around the deck and shed today...
then the guys planted the 3 pear trees that were given to us by a neighbor...
this is how we keep Charlie from running off on this side of the yard...
there is a lead on the other side...
and this is where I worked first...
planted the last of the flowers in here and pulled maple trees...
thinned the radishes...
and this is where the new bunny is going to be for now...
we moved everything out of here and really cleaned it good...
then moved things back, just in slightly different places...
all the blooms we have right now is amazing...
Craig did well planting this...
this was my grandma's washtub...
she has been gone 20 years now...
another view of the tub...
and after I hoed the maple trees out...
so far, this is my favorite photo of Charlie...
sitting on my lap at the picnic table...
but not like a dog...
like a kid...
that's the way he sits with me...
especially in the wheel chair...
he likes to see where he is going...
I love this little pot that Craig got for me the first of the year...
so happy to get to use it finally!
a bird's nest that I found in the yard earlier this spring after a thunderstorm...
and the last rose bush to bloom did it today...
we got less than a tenth of rain this afternoon...
could sure use more, but we have many chances this week...
I think every day but one has rain in it...
so, might be an inside week, which give me time to catch up in here...
looks like a bomb went off again...
had a wonderful 3 day weekend with Craig...
and he has another one next week, too...
my mind is reeling with all the possible projects we can do...
;0)
hope your weekend was as blessed as mine...

Tete, I swear your yard is going to win blue ribbons. What with all the plantings and beautiful little areas of things to look at and enjoy.That dog is getting cuter, isn't he? Maybe this week you can sit on the deck and just relax some. Blessings ,xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful, I need to get things started here, again, hopefully the rain will slack off for a few days, and give us a chance to get the weeds out.
ReplyDeleteYour yard is looking like a showplace, Tete! Seriously- you keep things so neat and well weeded. Your veggie patch is spectacular...and so are your other plants.
ReplyDeleteLove Charlie tied to the brick. lol My friend used to keep her cat on a leash with a brick on the end so that it couldn't jump over the fence to escape. She had an inground pool. One day I said-did you ever think that if the cat fell IN the pool it would drown because the brick would sink. She about had a heart attack. She had never thought of that. lol
Have a great night, Tete-xo Diana
The brick is an excellent idea.
ReplyDeleteyour garden is amazing.
Tete, just had to tell you I went to Wal-mart looking for the bunny you had bought no such luck...
ReplyDeletetrying another one tomorrow.
