Backyard Weekend

Vic & I had a great, but dirty, weekend working in the yard! We finally got the lattice and flowers put in around the patio and we're very pleased with the results. We'd still like to find something climby to put under the lattice, but we're in no real rush for that. We planted some lovely lavender there for right now and I think it'll look great once it starts lavendering. We also planted some sunflower seeds, so I'll have to keep an eye on those over the next couple of weeks! Here are some pics of our work...




We think this will give us just the right amount of privacy we want from the perv neighbor two houses down. He already seems a little peaved...Success!!

Today is our 8 year anniversary and we really wanted to do something special this past weekend since we both have to work today, but we also wanted to get the backyard finished and we had a great time working on it together, so I think we had a pretty good anniversary. And Vic made some wonderful shish kaVics on the grill (I set the table & washed the dishes!). It was a great weekend!
