finally!






who would've thought making a humongous rock bed would be so much work? ok, whatever, we knew. but still. we are SO glad to be (almost) done. 99.9% of it is finished and that's good enough for now! we still need some bigger river rocks to edge it all out and flat paver stones to make a walkway between the flower bed and the rocks (hence that dirt strip you see in the last photo). isa's little swing will also be hung from the tree, so that she can still enjoy it when it's really hot out. but we'll call it good for today, so that phil can ice his aching back!
sidenote: we're transplanting a big rose bush into that front bed... in the neglected looking corner by the steps. just in case anyone was wondering if we ran out of plants or something ;-)

One word...AWESOME. You all cease to amaze me with your boundless energy. No doubt, Isa will be in "rock heaven" now, and won't have to worry about the wicked witch down the street. All she needs is her swing under the cool shady tree. ENJOY. XOXOXOX I love you all. Nanny

I may have been a lot of work, but it looks nice!
