Our Big Spring Project

I know I haven't been blogging a lot lately. The weather outside has been beautiful, and my mind has just not been on it, especially since we've been making some landscaping changes to our backyard. I'm enjoying getting out and digging in the dirt. Must be some holdover from when I was a child doing the mud pie thing.

Anyway, we've decided to plant Missouri native wildflowers on our new berm, particularly wildflowers that will attract butterflies and/or birds. Even though we have one of those tiny backyards one sees in the city and live cheek-by-jowl with our neighbors on either side, the changes have made it feel like another room, private, even though it is outdoors. The next thing is to get actual patio furniture instead of those resin chairs, but that may have to wait until next year. This has been a rather big project for us.

Check it out.
