a little more landscaping

Well we finally got around to some more landscaping. Last Sunday, while Charlotte napped, Chris and I dug up the space in the front of our house in preparation for some plant life.
This Sunday, while Charlotte napped, we were able to go get the the shrubs, dig holes, plant them. By the time we got all of that done, Charlotte decided to get in on the fun and come out and help us spread mulch and place the bordering rocks. Here are some pics of our handy work. We'd like to plant something else in front of the boxwoods but we can't agree on anything right now so maybe we'll come back and do more later.

Here's our "before" pic - BORING!!!


And "after" - TaDa!!!


Safety First! Chris had to chisel off some of the rock so that it would have a good fit.


Charlotte had to rest from all of her hard work.






Yes, they are small now but they will grow and they were much cheaper than the more mature plants.
