What a balmy November day we will be having!!! It comes with a bit of rain, but that is perfectly okay because Chris did a ton of planting and transplanting yesterday and all that landscaping could use a good drink of water today & tomorrow!!
Yep, I said planting!!! The construction company came on Friday to lay some black dirt and smooth everything out (they did a GREAT job!!). And to top it all off: we came home to 6 replacement plants!!! WooHoo! They are very nice ones, too! Definitely nicer than the ones that were ripped out at the beginning of this entire process, I have to admit.
So, Chris was out for hours yesterday planning and planting! He brought so many starts from other plants in our backyard and moved one of our burning bushes to the front!!! He even stumbled upon some bricks that he was thrilled to find and be able to use to help complete the transformation. The front is going to look very different this spring than last. Exciting!!!
I think the final step is grass seed. I am going to drop off our payment this week and ask about the grass seed (will they wait until spring to spread it??).
