Brenda,
Those babies are sooo cute! I would love to get out of the city and have some property to have chickens...hopefully one day! It was gorgeous yesterday....I fertilized last week for grubs and crabgrass....so yesterday I mowed and edged. I planted some hyacinths I bought two weeks ago looks like they love me for sticking them in the dirt finally .

I dug 2 bunnie grasses out to move them to the back yard I had them planted by 3 huechera's and the coral bells need more room so in the back they go. I'm so excited my neighbor told me to take a huge clump of one of her grasses they have to many and it over crowed a little patio area they made...so I can split that in two and plant it behind 2 boulders I have in the front. Now I won't have to spend a dime to get a some new grass that I needed for that spot. YAY.... my hosta's are poking through, I planted them last year I also got them all free from a teacher/friend of my sisters kids. She moved into a new house and this house has every type of hosta I've ever seen....ferns, ground covers ect ect. We were welcome to take what ever we wanted and still are this woman is a sweet heart!

I will go dig that grass out at the neighbors today and plant it so it will be well established with this rain we are sapposed to get next week...
My Bradford Pears are about to bloom...I will fertilize all my wonderful flowers coming up today... We also have to mulch this year so I'll be checking into the prices for 8 yards next week and I hope to get that down in the middle of May or sooner.

I got a little barbecued yesterday so I'll have to be more careful today, had a nice sun headache as well didn't wear a hat or drink enough water while I was out there...I was just so excited to be out I forgot about all those precautionary measures I need to take now....except I did remember the motrin before I went out...so I wasn't as sore last night as I would have been without taking it!

Have a Beautiful Day Today Everyone!
