Happy Birthday Hubby

Today was hubby's birthday!  But he didn't get to relax or celebrate much... yet! Maybe this weekend?

Since we just got the washout repaired this week, we spent the evening planting some bushes the neighbor offered us.  Hubby had to dig them out of the neighbor's yard, and I planted them.  Then we threw down some grass seed and straw. Please, oh please, let this be the last time we have to deal with this hill!

So back to the birthday thing... Hubby did get to enjoy some fresh fruit tonight.  And anyone who knows me well knows there's hardly ever fruit in our house!  Hubby got an edible arrangement today (from me).  He said it was so good he could have eaten the entire thing in one sitting... but he didn't, he's saving the rest for breakfast tomorrow!

Grass seed and straw down

Grass seed, bushes, erosion blankets and straw down... again

Getting water

Watering the new bushes

These are creeper bushes... should eventually cover the hill...
hope they grow really, really FAST!


Yum... fresh fruit bouquet

    Jack, you are always doing something around your new house, it all looks good though. You can feel proud, it is a beautiful place. You too Bonnie, I know you have been right out there helping.
