Today we started back on the yard. Yep, it was cold! John wanted to decorate the front yard for Christmas and I wanted the front flower bed to look nice.
We went to Lowe's last night and came home with some new decorating ideas and, of course, the things to decorate with. We bought some of the big ornaments to hang on the front porch and some new garland too. We also purchased a big bow for the front door (and some for the garland). I think it looks nice. John did a great job!
I worked on putting out the edgers for the bed around the porch. Of course, when it came to the curved part I did have John help break the edgers for me. I'm not so good with a chisel. lol We just need a couple of more bags of mulch and that bed will be done. Yeah! We will start back up on the backyard now that all the things that go boo from under bushes have, hopefully, gone to sleep for awhile. I am so hoping we get the bike trail finished this winter so the girls can use it next summer. It is one of the things they were looking forward to when this whole process started in February.
An update on their school work: We are still up to date!! They have been finishing everything everyday just as planned with most of the afternoon to do as they wish. I am really hoping this continues, at least through the holidays. ;)
