You may be surprised to know that we have lived in this house for 5 years...we moved in Memorial weekend 2004. Yay!...we have actually set a record....why haven't we moved? I guess we like it here ( for now!...you never know what next year could bring).
This year was most enjoyable getting the yard ready. We only had to put down fresh bark in the planters. Mark is the master of weed abatement and I can honestly say I may pick 5 weeds a week all summer long! There are benefits to having an established yard and living in a home more than three years.
We will add three fruit trees and a strawberry patch to the yard this year. I guess this means we do have intentions on staying here since the fruit trees will be a year or two before they produce.
Tonight is family night...we are going to learn about why we should plant a garden and go to the nursery to pick up our fruit trees. In the next few weeks we will plant our vegetables in the planters so we can enjoy garden foods this summer.

Ooooh, I can't wait to try my hand at gardening. I am still hopeful that I can grow something this year, even if the landscaping isn't done til June. :) Your yard looks beautiful- I just love looking at dark new bark and green green grass.
