Brian and I bought lots of annuals yesterday and went on a potting frenzy. The picture doesn't do it justice, but now our steps welcome you with the colors and fresh smell of the season. I told Brian I wish I lived across the street so I could look at our front everyday. It's coming along. It's not exactly the way we want it, but well on its way.
We had our first compliment yesterday from a neighbor passing by. While she was looking at our neighbor when she said it, I believe it was directed at us too - since we are connected. At least I hope so.
