TIMBER

 Crash!
There goes the pine tree.



And what we put in it's place.


Sutton and Laina helped a lot! ;)
 It was a few days' process.

As I was doing this, I thought...maybe I should have bought a few more plants, but the more I was planting, the more roots I had to dig out...and decided that what I bought is just fine. :)
This picture was turned but for some reason it wants to be this way....


Laina and Chester "helping"



It's done!!
It'll be nice when it's all grown up a little bit.
The little maroon plants are supposed to get bigger and be as tall as 15 inches. The other ones are hostas and a rose bush.
I potted the plant in the middle because 1) they didn't really have an colors that matched right and 2) it was cheaper to do the work rather than get one already finished. :)
I may get more plants next year, when I've forgotten how horrible the roots are to dig out....we'll see how it all grows. 

 The kitchen table is now a perfect spot to have my morning coffee/tea while reading my bible before the craziness of my day begins

...when I actually get out of bed before the kids wake up.


Next project - the rotting deck out and a patio in....
NEXT YEAR!!!
