Landscaping

Here are pictures of our landscaping. If it works better to email this to you, let me know. I also added a few pictures of our new door ( which Chris hasn't finished by the way ) ;)

Anything can be moved in the landscaping except the hosta on the left hand corner, I like it there and it does well in the shade. The left side get partial sun because of the tree. The right side including the front and side of the house gets full sun. The little part that is separate I put annuals in. Today I totally cleared out the remainder of the nasty weeds alongside the house. We will be putting in a darker reddish mulch I think. I do have 2 sedums ready to be put in, they are in pots waiting to find a home. Also in the picture of the left hand side is a small plant called a blue fescue and a daylily that is not doing so well there.
Thanks for some ideas. Hopefully I will be successful posting the pictures.
Love you,
Diane

Mitchell's project

Click on over to the Muller blog and you can see pics of Mitchell's shark project. I was too lazy to post the pics in 2 places.

Amanda's haircut

Here is Amanda's haircut. She loves it.. I am not so sure. The bangs are too short and not blended into the rest. I pictured it to be long choppy bangs that were part of the cut.. These are short bangs that are not well blended. Oh well, it will grow. I do like her with shorter hair.

Thoughts ?

I think you can also

see her missing front tooth.. she looks so goofy !

pine car pictures
