Our last fall outside project!

So here is our newest outside project! We had a rather boring front yard, rarely used... The girls never play in the front - since all the toys and the fence are in the back. Bryan and I worked on this for about 3 days - planning the shape, killing the grass (lots of fun for Bryan!), and then raking and shoveling LOTS of topsoil! We built the rather eclectic rock wall... mostly to hold the dirt up! Neither of us are engineers (should've had Pili build the wall!) so we'll see how long it stays up! Then we planted about 150 bulbs - various wildflowers, tulips and daffodils. The two mums down in the tip will be replaced by a Japanese red maple tree next spring, I hope! Twenty bags of mulch later, we are "almost" done! We have a friend who is going to deliver a large "sitting rock" that will go where the tiny little rock is now in the middle of the garden (to the left of Adie). I'm praying that this will turn into a beautiful spot for some spring pictures!!
