We finished a new garden in my backyard. I love it - can't take my eyes off it. It is beautiful. Basically completed it in 2 weekends, thanks to my dad. He designed it, laid it out, leveled it, placed block and arranged the plants. I dragged in "tons" of block (each weighs 21#) and 55 bags of dirt with some help from my sons, Mike and Robbie. My mom gave me the idea of a rose garden (top pic and right side in next pic) and helped me pick out the plants. At the garden center I saw the fairy statue and thought to myself - that's it, have to have her and a few minutes later my mom said "Look at her. Do you want her? I'll buy her for you." She's holding a mirror ball and has these awesome wings with balls of stained glass. She's perfect.
So it seems like overnight I went from a patch of grass to this amazing garden. Thanks Mom and Dad.
