Our yard is just plain pretty right now. Pretty, that is, between rains when we can get outside to enjoy it. This weekend, we have been outside most of the time. It has been cloudy. It has been windy and blustery but it only sprinkled on us a couple of time and that, of course, was when we were loading up brush to take to the compost pile! But we planted and weeded and Himself is painting, pruning, preening, and prettying up.
I like the picket fence and flower box Himself designed, executed and painted. Now we have planted ivy and geraniums in the flower box so a few warm days of sunshine will make those flowers take off and bloom their hearts out.
This little space has come a long way. Remember when it used to be fenced and the only things inside that fence were toys, weeds and broken things? Now it brightens my day every time I stand at the back door and look out or walk outside. There's always something new blooming or catching my attention.
