~~~Slowly getting the yard and deck into shape!!~~~~

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is what I started with on Monday. These little things RAIN out of the trees so I can sweep and blow the decks every 10 mins. AAUUGGHH!!! But I was determined to get the deck set up and start cleaning up the yard and pond so we can plant flowers to enjoy all summer! I love being outside and playing in the dirt!!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZglMRuwNtYCvb0Y-vs56TR6vkEkChLB6CAHBRkM4q-6Bc9qA3izfZ-zchinEOExidKwe-yLIWHgQOmkZdw6Nug-Vjz641SjAt5Ht4bZ-iYFLQjf_K2iD6wCA6Fm8Aj6QOXS_aHqz8fZsM/s1600/IMG_6705.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" i8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZglMRuwNtYCvb0Y-vs56TR6vkEkChLB6CAHBRkM4q-6Bc9qA3izfZ-zchinEOExidKwe-yLIWHgQOmkZdw6Nug-Vjz641SjAt5Ht4bZ-iYFLQjf_K2iD6wCA6Fm8Aj6QOXS_aHqz8fZsM/s320/IMG_6705.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> I did get all 9 window boxes planted. Joe made me new ones last year cause the old ones were falling apart. Then we stained them black and I LOVE them. It is such a pretty contrast against the color of the decks. Ther are 5 window boxes on theis deck and 2 on the breakfast room deck and 2 on the deck off our room.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEierD2kLCiSsB2h1epMwagWtcHBCsDkGb6iTFFj4Nva0eUwrnyzrGaf4mmP1IlsWSA1Fzi9kIw7hkR7U8JZuUgPmO2w5XDi05t0_bt3a_s7M4I5aLVymPubXaHQ1BQmQXXnpqkS4ZhoT7vg/s1600/IMG_6706.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" i8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEierD2kLCiSsB2h1epMwagWtcHBCsDkGb6iTFFj4Nva0eUwrnyzrGaf4mmP1IlsWSA1Fzi9kIw7hkR7U8JZuUgPmO2w5XDi05t0_bt3a_s7M4I5aLVymPubXaHQ1BQmQXXnpqkS4ZhoT7vg/s320/IMG_6706.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> This bench gets moved out to beside the pond.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7UMiF9ZWfKcbEOzXePV9Kf1ogWoOsfK-uGhnAmQR9x27GZZ5mPE58HlQZl4XV40tz4b76j5NS6xHhMEK4d3w27uMOxja5myu2SVZddaJBLGwapbZiXBETc9A614cTQXQL2v9Gkfn9zFtg/s1600/IMG_6707.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" i8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7UMiF9ZWfKcbEOzXePV9Kf1ogWoOsfK-uGhnAmQR9x27GZZ5mPE58HlQZl4XV40tz4b76j5NS6xHhMEK4d3w27uMOxja5myu2SVZddaJBLGwapbZiXBETc9A614cTQXQL2v9Gkfn9zFtg/s320/IMG_6707.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj56o8SPqrrdqVcFq8OxY0lGPiwbZAtByBBeOALVrRx0C4ZdcdREqkayDAoEpn7EjnGzmdPZtgB6eNbnjSRE6PlkpogO30NlilnsK0y2d5WFUoCbnxK8nlmNoJ6X96TGJOIf9nLjL4ZejEZ/s1600/IMG_6708.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" i8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj56o8SPqrrdqVcFq8OxY0lGPiwbZAtByBBeOALVrRx0C4ZdcdREqkayDAoEpn7EjnGzmdPZtgB6eNbnjSRE6PlkpogO30NlilnsK0y2d5WFUoCbnxK8nlmNoJ6X96TGJOIf9nLjL4ZejEZ/s320/IMG_6708.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> I planted impatiens in all the boxes.
