Lanscaping...kind of

Cameron continually gives me a hard time because I fell in love with this house, and of course it did not have any yard. So this spring, we are trying to work on landscaping, and it is a lot of work and so expensive! I now have a greater appreciation for nice yards I see when I am driving around. Well, we decided to spend most of the day yesterday (Saturday) working on planting trees and other plants, and switching one side of our fence the other direction so it matches on all three sides. It was a lot of prep work so we can get curbing and get our sprinkler system in. Of couse the wind so blowing so hard. We actually had a pretty good time and got a lot done, but man by the time we came inside, my eyes were red and burning, my teeth were gritty, and every crevase on my face was caked with dirt. We will be so glad when we have grass!




Also, I have been meaning to post for a few days that on Friday, it was mine and Cameron's 5th year anniversary of our engagement. Yep, on April 24th, 2004, Cameron romantically asked me to be his wife for time and all eternity. My mom was hiding and filmed the whole thing, so it is fun to remember that great day. Since I am going down memory lane, here are some of our engagement pictures.

Our indoor garden

I was telling my mom about our plants in our house that are growing under florescent lights, and she wanted to see pictures. The tomatoes are growing like crazy, so hopefully it gets warm soon so we can plant them outside. We are looking forward to spring not only to plan our garden but put in a sprinkler system, curbing, and plant grazz and landscaping. Then we won't be living in a mud hole--Yay! Anyway, here are some pictures of our spare bedroom/greenhouse.
