Flowerbed Before and Afters

It was a clear day with a nice, cool breeze. The perfect day to tend to the jungle that had become our flower beds. Thanks to mom's offer to buy some mulch, we made a trip to Lowe's and spent the morning pulling, planting, and mulching. Here are the before and after pictures.


The side flowerbed before....


and after!

The front flowerbed before.....
... yuck ........
... and After!


The abandoned flower pots before.....


....and after! Now, I have never really tried gardening. I don't know that these will last,
but I am going to try and not kill them within the first week.

After the gardening I had to come in and work on my term paper for class. To congratulate me for turning in my thesis, my husband decorated my work space with these pretty little things.


So, what did you do on your Saturday?
