Embrace the Camera- Daddy

This post is dedicated to my hardworking husband.

He's embracing the camera this week.

He doesn't know it...but he is.  

He has worked SO hard on our yard and all of our flower beds this week.

Birthday party #2 is coming this weekend and I wanted things in tip top shape. 

Plus, we are going to put our house on the market soon, so a little curb appeal always helps.

And now, we've got the nicest yard in the 'hood.

Thanks to The Husband and his hard work! 

The Boy does not like the blower or the weed-eater.

Daddy is helping him learn to be brave.

The boots.  Love. 

And here are the fruits of his labor.

AMAZING right?!?!

The beds were in shambles. 

After the Fall we let them go because who really cares in the winter.

Well.  I care.  But it's just too cold to mess with.

The shrubs on the left were OUT OF CONTROL.

I wish I had a picture of them before he cut them. Just think- twice the size and WILD.

The side flower bed is HUGE and quite a chore keeping it clean from weeds.

But, I love it.  It looks so nice when you drive up the street and see a clean bed.

The bed on the right had 3 bushes die in the Fall and we (ahem.  I watched) pulled them up.

It was bare all winter.

Now.  SO much better. 

I love love love a nice yard.

The beds are all edged, weeded, mulched and watered.

I planted 9 zillion bulbs but so far only a little group has come up by the porch.

I'm waiting on the rest of them to pop up.

Thank you Husband for taking a day off from work to break your back for me.

It looks wonderful!!!

And...just in case you thought I was kidding about Charlie.

I'm not.  He goes everywhere with The Boy.

Even in the yard.

He eventually puts him down but he's always within sight.

And those shorts...they kill me. 

I think he grew over nap time.
