Cali, Part 2- Around the House and a Gardening Project

Grandpa gets to know the baby. :)

Playing with feet is very important.

When Sarah got off work today, she wanted to go buy plants for a project. My dad recently redid a part of the yard around the arch Ron and I were married under. He laid bricks in the part under it and planted some climbing plants at the base on each side. There is also recently cleared dirt on either side, so Sarah had said this morning she wanted to plant flowers there. Then later today, my dad said the same thing! So when I picked her up, we headed over to Home Depot to pick some stuff out. She chose, salvia, snapdragons and pansies.

Working on the right side. Orion is apparently supervising haha.

Trying to pull a root out that proved too tough for him. My dad had to get get in there with a trowel and chop it out.

Mmm, dirt. He looks like he is about to take a bite of it!

Feet in the grass for the first time - an important usually overlooked first. :)
Grandpa saying hello.
All done! If you look closely, you can see that the arch perfectly frames the Simi sign on the hill. Hmmm. Not sure what the gnome is all about, but then again, there was a rooster there at first. ???
The result of all that grass kicking.
Grandpa helps Orion get on one of the many plastic horses in the yard.
Do you ever have the feeling you are being followed?
