This spring season I finally did what I have been wanting to do for a while now... created flower beds! There was a bed in the front yard and one small one in the corner of the back yard, but other than that it was pretty much bare bones and just grass.
But now...thanks to a ton of help and hard work from my parents (my dad with the muscles and my momma with the green thumb brilliance) we have created gorgeous flourishing flower beds with some of my most favorite flowers in them!
There is nothing more relaxing then coming home from work and walking outside to see the newest lilly or gerber daisy that has bloomed. Also just to relax and prune the dead leaves off, and water each one with my fun new soaker thing is just simple goodness.
Sunshine + beautiful flowers + cool rock borders + new magic soaker wand = amazing therapy!!!
And this post would be pointless without pictures, so enjoy my lil corner of heaven here on Appleridge :)
I took your advice and enjoyed a bit of garden therapy myself this afternoon. I've got geraniums all around the house that really needed to be dead-headed, and a few little weeds to be plucked. It made me feel better.
