Gabi and I were enjoying a quiet afternoon at home a few days ago, when we heard something barrelling down the driveway. She threw open the front door to find a little more than she bargained for…..more than I had bargained for. It was Mike, ready to move the load of topsoil to my front flower bed-to-be. The conservation trees are temporarily hanging out right in front of the house so I can water them frequently. Instead of making me move them, Mike just dumped dirt around them. 
This is Farm Boy, himself, smoothing some topsoil around the corner of the porch. Next to my fabulous rocking chair. Thanks Mama and Dad!
This is the backside of the small retaining wall I’ve built next to the driveway. It is cute, from the other side. I’m still trying to decide what to do about the columns. They are $50 each for the least expensive wraps and I’m just not sure. So, I’m not making a decision yet. 
And THIS, is my gorgeous and hugeamongous hydrangea on the deck. Thanks Mom!
Let me know when you needs someone to get their hands dirty and help! Looks like things are progressing 🙂
Umm, Lee are you sure that’s a hydrangea (as in a tag in the bucket somewhere)? It looks like a gorgeous and hugamongous geranium plant to me. The leaves don’t look right for hydrangea and I’ve never seen red, only pink.
And that is also your scrumptiously sweet girl with an elephant next to it.
I was going to leave the same comment as Dorothy – we have lots of hydrangeas in our yard and those leaves don’t match. But, regardless – it is very pretty! 🙂
I just had to lol. I meant geranium. Thanks girls for the catch. 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
