The Yard

It seems that Daddy has found himself a new hobby. Since Addie came along, Dad spends a lot of time in the yard.Before the baby, the front yard would look decent. But there was a lot of untapped potential in it.
Daddy has finally gotten a grip on edging the yard next to the sidewalk. That has greatly improved its look. If you look really close, you can see where the line is a bit crooked. Daddy says its because the sidewalk is crooked. Sounds like an excuse.
Two years ago mommy planted flowers in this little circle. Now there are two crepe myrtles there and no one really knows how they got there.
Daddy still has room for improvement, but wow, those edges are looking pretty sharp! Dad's new blower does a good job cleaning up the grass after he edges. Thanks mr. blower.

What a beautiful yard! Andrew would be drooling right now. He has high hopes for our yard to look like that ONE day :)

The grass looks great! The next time I visit I am going to work on those stepping stones. I think about how much fun it would be to expose them. I know - I'm weird.
