I LOVE A BEAUTIFUL YARD WITH BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS. I GUESS THAT EXPLAINS WHY JEFF AND I WORK SO HARD TO MAKE OUR YARD LOOK GOOD. A FEW WEEKS AGO WHEN WE WERE IN WALLA WALLA, WE PASSED THIS HOUSE WITH AN INCREDIBLE YARD. I HAD TO TAKE PICTURES OF THIS PLACE BECAUSE IT WAS EVERYTHING THAT I WOULD LOVE MY YARD TO LOOK LIKE. THE FLOWERS WERE IN FULL BLOOM, IT WAS SO SIMPLE YET SO VERY IMMACULATE. EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I WISH FOR A PLACE LIKE THIS WITH A LITTLE COTTAGE OR B AND B THAT I COULD RENT OUT, (IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DREAM IN THE BACK OF MY MIND TO OWN A BED AND BREAKFAST), BUT THEN REALITY SETS IN AND I REALIZE THAT IT WOULD BE A LOT OF WORK WITH NOT MUCH PLAYTIME AND I WOULD RATHER PLAY. SO I WILL JUST LOOK AND ENJOY THE BEAUTY THAT OTHERS MAKE FOR US PASSERBYS TO ENJOY.
WE ARE GETTING CLOSER TO COMPLETING OUR TO-DO LIST TO HAVE THE YARD READY FOR THE WEDDING IN AUGUST. WE SPENT A VERY HOT SULTRY DAY SATURDAY WORKING IN THE YARD. THINGS ARE STARTING TO TAKE SHAPE AND I AM HAPPY WITH THE WAY THEY ARE LOOKING.
(Love my new seating area. It is great in the evening because it is in full shade.
Such a nice place to relax at the end of the day)
(My daisies don't look anything like the ones in Walla Walla, maybe one day)
THE LAST PROJECT WAITING FOR US IS THE FLOWER BED ALONG THE BACK FENCE. I DON'T PLAN ON PLANTING ANYTHING IN IT BEFORE THE WEDDING. I AM HOPING TO GET IT RAKED OUT NICELY AND THEN TOP IT WITH MULCH AND BE DONE.
