Happy April everyone

I am doing pretty well on the making sure I get at least a post a week right now, so I just wanted to start by saying I hope everyone is having a good start to their April. It is hard to beleive that we are already on the 4th month into the year, and it is flying by so fast. I want to start by saying happy belated birthday to our Niece Gabrielle. I know we sent a card and gift on time, (I hope it got there on time), the belated is because the posting date is after the B-day. My birthday is coming up as well, and maybe I will get a walker and some motrin for as old as I feel..., just kidding. Things are good here, Emma has just had a little of a runny nose, but seems to be much better today, so hopefully that is on its way to being better. Now I know why it is hard sometimes to post more than once a week, not much changes sometimes!! We did however do some major yardwork this past weekend, which we hope will payoff this spring. I have some before and after photos, as well as some of the work being done I will post. It has gone from cluttered and crappy, to spaced out, colorful and beautiful. Once the seeding and mulching is done buy the end of the weekend, I will post some more photos of the completed work. Here are some photos so far and of this past week.

This is me getting ready to pull bushes out of the ground with the truck...

Amy and her dad working on breaking the roots free as I pull...

Above was the way it looked right after the wall was done with the plants all bunched together, and no fill dirt behind the wall yet...

Here is the bed as it looks now from a distance...


Here is a view from up closer

And even closer...
As you can see, we did a good bit of work to the bed that my wife planned out, and it looks good to start. Hopefully, when all done, it will really be something. I also tilled the whole yard where there were spots of no grass, or hard as a rock spots, which was basically 1/2 of the yard. I will post next week after we get fertilized and seeded, and hopefully it will look even better and I will have more to say. See ya.
