Perfect Moment Monday

My Perfect Moment has been several months in the making.. In spring I try to get into my gardens and rip (er.. gently, lovingly) and tear out all the old junk. Basically get it all cleaned up and ready for summer. Last spring, we were in the midst of life with Jack and Jill (our 4 1/2 year old placements) and clean up time came and went... I needed to give a full day to tend to the yard.. it didn't happen.

To my dismay, our front walk was overgrown and looked liked this..


And this...


The only big fans of my disaster were..


This past weekend the weather was amazing and Nantie, DH and I hit the yard work hard..


And VIOLA!!!!


MY PERFECT MOMENT!!!


Nantie said the only picture missing is me on Sunday.. curled up in the fetal position on the couch..

    That is amazing! There's nothing quite like the feeling you get when you see the results of a day of hard work. And you feel the muscles that got you there.

    Congrats!
