MY YARD

When we bought out townhouse last year it came with a little "back yard."

All summer long we talked about different ways that we could fix it up and make it really nice. Roughly over a month ago my dad put pavers in his back yard making a very nice patio area...see my second post.
He had said that they had some extras that he was going to return and I said I want them. My hubs looked at me with this crazy look on his face that said, and what do you want me to do with those???!!!

I went on say that we should take out the rock path way and stepping stones and out them there. Two weeks later my dad and the missionaries came over and here it is.While my dad and I talked I thought, well lets take the rocks and make a little rock pit for Carter and his friends to play in. So off to Lowes my dad went buying wood to make a frame and now I have two new things done to my yard that just inspires me to finish figuring out what to do in the spring. Therefore I must get my house (inside) done so that I start planning.
LOL! I love the during picture, Carter loves his snow boots and I love that he is helping my dad in them and his underwear.

I love the fall leaves on it, it's pretty too see them but I can't wait til the change color.
So where the dirty (flower beds) I want to plant some full shaded plants in the spring. If you know of some pretty ones let me know. I want to have lots of color.

When it came time to pay my dad for it all he told me that it was my late birthday present. Thanks daddy!
