Well, the pool is now folded up and tucked away… 

(it’s really still sprawled all over the lawn trying to dry)

The lawn is cut for the last time this season…

(it’s really a foot long due to our rain)

And it’s time to embrace fall!

(yes please… I’m so tired of taking care of this yard!)



We did lots of work in the yard this year. All new soil came in, beds cut up, the works.

So here’s a happy send off to all things summer 2011!

  3. Holy cow! Your yard is gorgeous…and the shed. How do you do it? My husband is the gardener in the family. I have a brown thumb but I get to enjoy. And all the pretty trees that are just beyond your fence ..wow. Jealous

  4. Just found your blog. Love, love, love your yard, especially your outbuilding. I look forward to coming back soon.

  5. Your yard is gorgeous! Is the bright red bushy plant a coleus? It really pops with color against all of the green. I’m going to have to remember that when I plant next year.

  6. Such a cute yard and do you even have any bugs or plant disease there? Your plants look so perfect! Mine are usually eaten or dying in a matter of hours (& that’s no lie) with some sort of disease or pest. We live in the woods, so many things effect my plants.

  7. Hi Donna,
    I have two comments:

    WOW, GORGEOUS, and

    PLEASE TELL US HOW YOU CAN WORK, TRANSFORM JUNK INTO BEAUTIFUL USEFUL OBJECTS, RAISE A CHILD, WRITE A BLOG AND BUILD AND MAINTAIN SUCH A LARGE GARDEN!!!
    Woman, do you ever sleep? You are amazing!

  8. Hey Donna if you find that answer to Revi’s question let us all know. Girl you have more energy than anyone I have ever seen. Your yard has the most beautiful view out the back. I love your shed and all of your garden. I have an iron teapot just like that in my garden too.
    Hope you and Cody have a wonderful weekend.

  9. Your garden looks beautiful!
    And I have just written a post on how I can not link up to your party tomorrow because I didn’t do a thing in my garden. (but I linked to you about a milion times :-) ) LOL

  10. Oh how lovely was my evening when I saw your photos of that fabulous yard. Your hard work has paid off in a great way. It’s a garden worthy of a two page spread in any magazine featuring gardening and funky junk. I love it!

  11. Your yard looks great. I love the top soil and crisp edging and all the elements you have added among the flowers. It’s a lot of work and the results show it!

  12. Can’t figure out which bit I love the best… I love the door handle and the pallet path, I also LOVE the fence and THAT View! Wow.

  13. Love all your pics! It’s just beautiful! I recycle everything I can get my hands on as well! Being one of the costumers for our local community play theater, I even recycle bed sheets. The goat used for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat was even made out of recycled plastic juice jugs as shoulders, plastic bags, used pvc pipe, you name it. LOL! Being a master gardener and belonging to two other garden clubs Has made me quite competitive. We all make a point to compete in our state fair each year for the “Trash to Treasure” event they have in the fairs floriculture building. It’s so much fun and very interesting to see and share what imaginations and talent these gardeners can come up with! The men are getting just as serious about it as the ladies are! Thanks for sharing! It’s just amazingly beautiful!

  14. Your yard is amazing! Thanks for sharing to give inspiration. We are trying to overhaul our back yard one tiny step at a time. We live in the city and want to bring beauty and nature to our yard for our 7 kiddos. Thanks again for the inspiration!
