Hey check out my "hand socks" aka mittens

What a beautiful day to be outside!

It is amazing how fast she can unload my drawers!

Do you like my morning "do?"

A New Flower Bed

Back in June my DH and I came up with a way to help disguise the "lovely" power pole that the previous owners had placed in very awkward spot in the backyard. It stood out like a sore thumb so we thought if we incorporated it into a flower bed it wouldn't be as noticeable. I've taken my time with this project and even now I still need to put down more bark dust and plant more flowers but I'm going to wait until spring. My mother-in-law was a great help on this project! Here is a few pictures of the project!

Oh and I want you to know my sister didn't even notice the pole the last time she came to visit. She actually had to go outside and look to see if it was there! Goal accomplished!

Yardwork

The last few days we have been busy in the yard. We have had the goal of pruning all the fruit trees, lay out a garden, and begin some planting. Yesterday we finished the wood chipping in the orchard field, planted blueberries, gooseberries, and marionberries. We also staked out the area for our garden and my DH built six raised beds. This is starting to get exciting!! Here are some pictures of the things we've done!
