Weeds and more weeds!

Jordan and I decided to spend Saturday by cleaning up the front flower bed. It desperately needed some attention since we haven't touched it since we moved it, some 2 years ago!! My hope was that Mariah would take a nap and Chase would play angelically well on the porch with chalk. Yeah right, that's what you get for dreaming in a world of perfection. Mariah would not nap and Chase tired quickly with the sidewalk chalk. So, time to improvise. Out came the pool, sand toys, snacks and a highchair. I was able to weed most of the bed, plant a couple of flowers and Jordan was able to remove a shrub root and some Virginia Creeper (lots of fun). Its amazing what cut grass and watered flowers can do to a yard. Of course the work ended in the kids crying for lunch and cranky for their naps, but we did make some good progress. We will have to finish another day! I did manage to snap a couple pictures for good ole memories!!
