Spring has sprung.

Hooray for spring! These warm temperatures and sunny skies are sure popping up early here in Kentucky. Perhaps it is just a teaser for what is to come this summer, but there are no complaints here.

We can keep our windows open. Let the boys run rampant in the backyard. Grill out on the patio. Enjoy a long run in the middle of the afternoon. Show off a fancy pedicure. Release the hounds at the dog park. Take walks with the hubby. And, soak up some sun. 

We have been staying pretty busy in the evenings and weekends working out in the yard. Since we moved into our home in the late summer last year, we weren't able to do really anything outside. Now that it is getting nice out we are getting things in full swing! Heres what we plan to accomplish...
Wish us luck!!

1. Add some bushes and flowers in the bed along the front porch.


2. Plant some trees in the back yard for shade and privacy.
 


3. Add stone walkways on each side of the back patio.



4. Fix the gutters on the patio roof.

5. Say adios to most of the dandilion and clover.


6. Spruce up the front porch.


7. Plant some daylillies in the back yard.


8. Plant a bougainvillae on the trellis to remind us of Greece.
 
Shew...theres a lot to do even though 
we have gotten a few of these things knocked off the list already.
Did we mention we recruit.
Any takers?

I am predicting many days of playing the dirt ahead, but it will all be worth it!
Oh, heres a few pictures I snapped the other day while out in the yard!


   Heading to colder climates.
