BEHOLD: The finished fence!
(So my aching body has nothing at all to do with this one-- this was all Adam's doing, and he certainly did it beautifully!)
BEHOLD: New layer of stones added to the flower beds, dug out by me from the backyard, hauled by Adam in our rickety wheelbarrow and stacked by yours truly!
BEHOLD: A cute pair of gates to keep John Harper contained!
(and my cute new lantern lights from Tar-jay.)
BEHOLD: Herbs!
BEHOLD: the sunset garden in bloom!
BEHOLD: The Rustic Patio!
(I've got some serious leveling to do here. Don't worry, I'm going to go back with sand underneath. Kinda like I had to go back and prime and paint (three stinkin' more coats) on the bookshelf because I can't stand a job half-finished.)
BEHOLD: the playhouse emptied and ready for Phase II!
(anybody want a Jenny Lind bed, double size? I have to sell this off and get a twin for out here, since both of my ideas for a double won't work.)
BEHOLD: what was in the playhouse as recently as 4 pm on Sunday!
BEHOLD: Tired, tired, tired mama.
No photo available. I tell you, though, accomplishing this much in two weekends is really good for the psyche. I am looking forward to enjoying the fruits of our labor in the coming weeks-- if I can stop working on the house long enough to relax and enjoy it!
