Happy Baptism Mattie!

Jacqueline and I spent a beautiful after with her brothers family, for our niece's baptism. Congrats to the Urda's, and thanks for the ham!

Afterwards we booked it over to Lowe's, who were having a 3 for $10 perennial party. We grabbed 3 of each of the following:
Dragon's Blood Sedum
Rosish One Dianthus
East Friesland Salvia
Plus something else that I already lost the tags for. Jacqueline, tags are your job!

We added on to the mulched areas we added yesterday. We're planning a little path up to the street from the front door, since that is how everyone walks in anyway. Eventually we'll put some flag stone in there, and plant all the way up.

We also swapped our dying hydrangeas with our dying azalea's from last year. I'm hoping its a too much sun / too little sun situation, and they both grow big and healthy. Odds are they'll be toast tomorrow.

The entrance way is really coming along. This time last year we were frantically planting all sorts of random stuff, mostly in the wrong places, without amending the soil, and no forethought to layout. This year we are still doing mostly the same, but acting like we know what we're doing. Atleast we're playing with cow poop and soil conditioner.

We took a few pictures, hope you like!
