~~~The Pond, today. Easter, 2011~~~

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Happy Easter everyone! It is gorgeous here right now and Joe was out "putzing" around the pond so I thought I would take some pics. Tomorrow we will be planting about 80 annuals around the pond so it will look quite different tomorrow, then we will get mulch! Yvonne, this is for you!!!!!!:) Looking from the lower pond up towards the very upper pond. Joe built the new bridge last year.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCTwj6N6QaGhyphenhyphencOKq7I7TGhLdo5eFQoLEowD-TubOYFhpzdkQV2Ow9J8QxesqqH6aO-x0pEGsJhHCF4eIUFGWM4IsMm0NmhQA3XJayugaqWjRKZG-Cvlsm2osu-KSRvuxO3hsWJ-SFZTjL/s1600/IMG_6786.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/AVvXsEgCTwj6N6QaGhyphenhyphencOKq7I7TGhLdo5eFQoLEowD-TubOYFhpzdkQV2Ow9J8QxesqqH6aO-x0pEGsJhHCF4eIUFGWM4IsMm0NmhQA3XJayugaqWjRKZG-Cvlsm2osu-KSRvuxO3hsWJ-SFZTjL/s320/IMG_6786.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> The bridge and creek.

~~~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.

Make an iron and wood table in 10 minutes for free!

Seriously. I'm not kidding.  I have rearranged the living room furniture and needed a small table by my husband's chair for him to set a coffee cup, etc., so I decided to repurpose an iron outdoor table I had on the porch.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAM7B5TPjSPGJTGqWSmEBjc5Cwh9iCR4pNPEBYiPzs2vzV0EOjbUAkNFNhScQs0kU3OwGcA-2Bof-nlW9jQwlAQvjlnlWxPrX7zqCzCfV7AG3yRpwLC27PgtuIrkYVHjAMQ7b0Ovp2jA/s1600/irontable1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAM7B5TPjSPGJTGqWSmEBjc5Cwh9iCR4pNPEBYiPzs2vzV0EOjbUAkNFNhScQs0kU3OwGcA-2Bof-nlW9jQwlAQvjlnlWxPrX7zqCzCfV7AG3yRpwLC27PgtuIrkYVHjAMQ7b0Ovp2jA/s1600/irontable1.jpg" /></a></div><br />Because my father recycles and reuses everything he can find, I knew I could find a piece of wood for the top. He recently had a truck load (not kidding) of scrap wood from a building site <span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: line-through;">dumped</span> delivered here. You would have to see it to believe it:-)  So I headed to the woodshop and found the perfect piece of pine already the right size and shape.

It has bunnies, chicks etc. on it but in a very subtle pattern.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF5VaouWabLnEOzeDAZEI5PGcEV1r9IW_GAkpAAzuJ5p2LkJ0lIPL2uTSxaPoAoEz_hbNO0sJeYXTgtpZyHxXksOBLGAfyVF4mYJVd_t92byzuX2EaPmqwG61rDOkLJGo-TG3Cw7iJyRvk/s1600/IMG_6660.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/AVvXsEjF5VaouWabLnEOzeDAZEI5PGcEV1r9IW_GAkpAAzuJ5p2LkJ0lIPL2uTSxaPoAoEz_hbNO0sJeYXTgtpZyHxXksOBLGAfyVF4mYJVd_t92byzuX2EaPmqwG61rDOkLJGo-TG3Cw7iJyRvk/s320/IMG_6660.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjquVy_1gAHvIzlF_KiOyNRE8ZQ1I_B_lNkNsDb-Q0dKve3k1rp7YflVG804FvnTOILLf2WzutKRApMGNy7yhnP0jukHl7MdQabT5Lxdgb2Kt881RLi_02yzlbmXfX5dQ8TOXlxhrAVr5_W/s1600/IMG_6661.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/AVvXsEjquVy_1gAHvIzlF_KiOyNRE8ZQ1I_B_lNkNsDb-Q0dKve3k1rp7YflVG804FvnTOILLf2WzutKRApMGNy7yhnP0jukHl7MdQabT5Lxdgb2Kt881RLi_02yzlbmXfX5dQ8TOXlxhrAVr5_W/s320/IMG_6661.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJGoOVPI0eXQmu6xDC7bNKDLsGT3ozD4bsSyao-uRxdhQeCaQQa0avySKT7lIQGMainiedd_VZDEnV9_reiqxb0XUXYOz1AxmQvHB1tYbYQbbXh-ukfWtto1LaBmbYZ7Wo9MNcSUWzDAU-/s1600/IMG_6662.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/AVvXsEiJGoOVPI0eXQmu6xDC7bNKDLsGT3ozD4bsSyao-uRxdhQeCaQQa0avySKT7lIQGMainiedd_VZDEnV9_reiqxb0XUXYOz1AxmQvHB1tYbYQbbXh-ukfWtto1LaBmbYZ7Wo9MNcSUWzDAU-/s320/IMG_6662.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div> Next, I took an egg wreath to encircle....<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihjOs7ZTbBIMpixZK5y75HSbIMdORrQ6FMQjLfRWq2Fy1cJ0aPSZB5DLHAfZkgXt8N_lRZeCyzoX7SugmAQOYGcYXk3p98b3BO0xLd0uZ6zBhRdCQMNb1DK3yVYF3sv1RC8VBQkQZEZl5z/s1600/IMG_6663.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/AVvXsEihjOs7ZTbBIMpixZK5y75HSbIMdORrQ6FMQjLfRWq2Fy1cJ0aPSZB5DLHAfZkgXt8N_lRZeCyzoX7SugmAQOYGcYXk3p98b3BO0xLd0uZ6zBhRdCQMNb1DK3yVYF3sv1RC8VBQkQZEZl5z/s320/IMG_6663.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div>my LARGE "chocolate" bunny!
