Nice weekend.

We had a great weekend here at home. No barbecues, no parties, just M and me relaxing at home and enjoying each other's company. It was nice to stay here after traveling two weekends in a row.

We were actually quite productive! On Saturday morning we stopped at a local nursery and got inspired to "remodel" Charlie's "bathroom" (a.k.a. our side yard). We had this really awful white rock that not only hurt his paws (it was sharp!), but also was not conducive to easily picking up his treasures. So we replaced it with small, round pebbles (gravel). Saturday afternoon was spent shoveling up the white rock, and then today we put down weed block and spread out the gravel. I think it is a BIG improvement from what we had! Charlie seems a little iffy, but I know he'll adjust.
Charlie, checking out his new digs!

Also this weekend, we bought a new bedroom set! This includes a bed frame, two nightstands and a dresser. Unfortunately, it won't be delivered until August 6, but I really want to paint our bedroom, so this will give me time to get that done.

In other news, I have a tomato growing in my garden! This is the first time I've ever planted tomatoes, so you can imagine my excitement that it's actually working! Yay! I can't wait to eat it!

Can you see it? Isn't it so cute?!

  2. Sounds like a nice weekend. I love doing home improvement projects, I am actually addicted. My DH has to stop me from constantly starting new projects.

  3. We started our first garden this year, too! We had so much squash and zucchini, we couldn't give it away! But the tomatoes go fast! Your puppy is so cute! :)
