A Day In the Life

Jordan and I have been keeping busy lately; both our jobs  are hectic lately, we have been getting some orders for our catering business as well as continually baking for the stations, and we are trying to get our yard done.

We recently bought some trees for the front and back yard.  We put a flowering plum and pear tree in the back as well as a maple tree (my little way of paying hommage to my homeland!) and we are still planning on adding some quakies back there as well.

In the front we dug out a flower bed and I planted some peonies and gladiolas.  We planted some tulips there in the fall and they are getting ready to bloom!  I can’t wait to have that pop of color in the front!  We also got a dappled willow to put in the front, it’s just little right now but it’s super cute!

The east side of our front yard is basically done, we are just waiting for the grass to grow in, which is the most painful thing ever!  Ok, I’m being a bit overdramatic but there’s not a day that goes by that I don’t yell at that grass to grow faster!  The west side is a different story, we still have a lot of work to do over there.  We have begun digging out to put a cement walkway into the back so we are just waiting to get that done and poured.  We also have a big hideous powerbox sitting in the front of our property, so we decided to build a mini picket fence to put around it to hide it.  We also have one more flower bed to get ready and then we have to put grass seed down and get that growing!  So much to do!  But it’s going to look so good once it’s done!

Other than that, we have just been trying to enjoy each others company and spend time with Roxy and Hurley.  Just enjoying life one day at a time!
