My New Yard Men

Sunday, Micah and I napped, while Mikey worked in the yard.  I was quite surprised, because I had no idea that was in his plans.  He made a lot of progress with the flower beds.  Before they were a hot mess.  Grass had grown up.  The bushes looked like trees.  Just a hot mess.  Here are the in progress photos.

The flower beds still are nowhere near completed, but we've made progress.  The right side is ready for the weed blocker and mulch.  The left side still needs work.  We {read Mikey} still need to finish clearing it out, and level it before the weed blocker and mulch is placed. Thanks to rain forecasted for the rest of the week from Hurricane Isaac, however, we're on hold for a while.

And here are what the shutters look like on Micah's windows.  Luckily, the neighbor said he would come over and help Mikey put them back up later this week.  We also need to paint them.  It seems like the To Do List keeps growing.

Pointing out the sad state of the shutters.

Falling shutters.

On another note...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIMI!!!!!
