Honey Harvest

Thankful for our sweet, hardworking honey makers. Our first honey harvest proved exciting and successful and we look forward to enjoying and gifting some sweet backyard honey this summer. 

Snow snaps

I may do the physical lifting, but my sweet girl sure lifted my spirits today. So much to be thankful for on this Southern excuse for a snow day.

Our [h]erb garden

No more shrubs thanks to our sewer woes

So a new raised bed for our herbs

Thanks to Tyson and Mike willing to work after quittin' time

And the back .4 is always enjoyed by this sweet fella

Especially after a weekend apart

We're slowly but surely finishing up the fence

Next up: Another raised bed for the garden

Chicken coop

Patio and fire pit

Perpetual home improvement (:

And then there was fence

Sweet, selfless, hardworking friends

Clean design

Fresh lumber, on sale and coupon used

Complete with a beer maiden

Little Greasers, always better eaten off a trailer

Those boys love tools, I love finished projects

Throw in my shirtless husband
Win, win and win

Obi-Wan Kenobi and a pretty ginger...in my backyard

Always, always thankful for visitors at our new home.

Bonus when they show up at 6am ready for a Lowe's trip and a full day of burly man productivity. 
Yep - ultra blessed with such wonderful friends!

New fence posts are all set.

Redneck limb trimming ensued.
More sun for our garden.
Sweet visit from our Merv!

Us girls squeezed in a quick trip to the mall because Mike is apparently all too rugged and has holes in all of his jeans.

Our back .4 is coming along so nicely.
I admit, I'm kinda obsessed with our Poplar tree.

We've been collecting plants all week and can't wait to put our Ag degrees to some more good use (:
