Workin’ in the Yard

Sorry for the lack of posting…I’ve had a stressful week at work. No excuse, I know, but still. Anyway, I thought I would share some pictures from last weekend. My in-laws came for a visit and spent the day helping us with our front yard. The house we bought was a foreclosure, so needless to say the yard was a bit neglected and in need of some major love. The flower beds were overgrown and there were still some dead leaves hanging around the plants and bushes. So we took advantage of the sunshine and set to work making our yard look pretty!

The in-laws working on the leaves. There were a TON. It seemed like we picked up leaves forever.

My man…doing something to the flower bed…lookin’ good.

We also planted some roses!

I promise I did some work too…the photographer never gets her picture taken.
