We got so much accomplished this weekend! Saturday morning, Brian dug a trench around the outside of the deck so we could lay landscaping pavers, while Sam and I purchased some plants to plant after we installed the pavers. While Sam was napping, Brian and I installed most of the pavers, and Sam 'helped' when he woke up. He was such a good boy this weekend, and loved being outside helping Dad and Mom.
On Sunday, we put down the preen and then planted the 12 plants we bought. We would still like to plant about 26 more -- but who's counting? -- and we're planning to do that next weekend.
Today, Brian was able to stain some more of the deck. The only thing left to stain are the stairs and the main floor.
Oh yeah, and I painted around the new laundry room doors while Sam was napping.
And Sam 'helped' me mow the lawn. He got a bubble lawn mower last year for his birthday, and we finally opened it this weekend. He had a blast and it kept him occupied so we could do a lot of the yard work.
All in all, it was a very successful weekend. We also celebrated Sam's birthday, watched the Memorial Day parade and attended a Memorial Day program at the cemetary. Oh, and we did have a chance to relax on our deck for awhile, too. :-)
