Memorial Day weekend - lots of work done!

I am the R.S. VT Co-ordinator in our ward. I spent two days putting this magnetic board together. Now I can see all the routes and makes changes and visually see the results.

Saturday morning Dad and I painted the outside of the gate, fence and side fence. We did it in

1-1/2 hours! Now it is finished! Yahoo! We stained the inside of the fence a month ago. It's rained so much we finally had a week of sun and got the outside done!

I put these stepping stone (blocks) in a month ago. When we got done with staining the fence, I spent 1 hour and 'pulled' out all the grass that was sticking out of the picket fence along the bottom!

This is my 'first' official rose in bloom at our new home! I planted 4 rose bushes and I love them! I put in two yellow bushes and two different pink bushes.
A month ago I put in the scalloped brick to keep the gravel and grass separate. Behind that utility box I dug up a bush. See below in the bucket. Poor planning on the guys that put in the landscaping. They put in right behind the utility box, hard to open those doors, plus it was right next to the driveway. I had to pull up just past it to get the door open and not step into the bush!

This is the bush I dug up.

We had quite a busy weekend holiday and got a lot accomplished!

Stained the rest of our fence.

Dug out grass in the picket fence.

Dug out a bush.

Sprayed Round-up on a few dandelions.

Mom dug 3 holes for my friend down the street to plant her 3 plants. The ground has plenty of rock and not much dirt. The holes were a foot deep. She is going to have hip surgery soon.

Dad mowed all the grass. It takes him 1 hour to mow both front and backyard!

Dad cleaned and straightened up his shed and garage.

Mom made her VT Board.

Finished! :o)
