Tired, Sore and Sunburned

I decided to work on the landscaping in front of the house and start from scratch.  About halfway through, I was ready to heave the rake and shovel down a river, but I was too far into the project, so I had to finish it.

The hardest part was digging out all the old mulch and plants and hauling it away. I had planned on taking "Before, During and After" shots, but I didn't remember the camera until I was in the "during" stage.

In the midst of planning out the project and deciding where the plants should go.

Laying down the black carpet, as I like to call it, to keep the nasty weeds away.

This is "almost done".  I still want to find some more colorful flowers to spice it up a little. 

My little workers, children.

It was too rough for them, so they decided to lay in the back of the truck and chill.
