A family affair....

The past couple of weeks have been quite busy, adjusting to summer, celebrating my birthday with friends, etc. But most of our time has been spent helping Brad and Becky pack their house and get ready to host their going away party at our house. We had a great time, good friends, and lots of good food. So the weekend before the party Matt and I updated the exterior of the house. When we moved in two years ago, it was "move-in ready". But we hadn't really done anything outside till now. I forgot to take before pictures but it was generally weedy, sandy' since most of our mulch had disappeared, and void of color. A few dozen plants and 42 bags of red mulch later, oh and a ton of sweat, we were done. We made it a family project but they mostly just dug and got dirty.........


Determined....



Mackenzie enjoys the gardening process a bit more than her sister.


Initially, Mason just enjoyed stacking the pots.


Our three goofballs working on something good.


The girls would have never been willing to get this messy. I just love that about Mason....all boy.




A bit hard to tell but the color is nice.


Our house.
