It's fall! We spent the day sprucing up the porch and preparing our front flowerbed for new plants.
It was out with the old and in with the new. Gone are the spring petunias and basil. We now have fall pansies and mums!
We've FINALLY gotten the front flowerbed cleared out. It was full of old, overgrown juniper and a bunch of weeds... not exactly a project we've been looking forward to completing, especially in the summer heat.
But J was a beast at ripping out roots with his mattock, which is especially impressive since he just had his wisdom teeth removed TWO days ago. He should be the poster child for his oral surgeon.
The fun part of the process was picking out the new plants at the nursery. We chose blue girl hollies to flank the outside of each window and a dwarf cherry laurel for underneath (sort of between) the front windows.
Look for another update soon with the finished product!
