more flowers and plants

Sometimes the weekends mean dragging Justin out of the house.  He often doesn't want to go out and about right away and it content to stay home and watch movies, play games, sword fight, etc.  But I like to get out, even just for a little bit.  We hit up the hardware store to get some spray paint and then Freddies to get a few plants.  Justin's love of plants is dangerous for me, cause I love plants too!  We filled our cart with flowers and headed home. 

Rachel was over this afternoon to do some crafting, but she picked up the camera for me and snapped a shot of us planting.

I actually had other things planned for this tub, but Justin insisted.  And I think the end result when it fills in will be just fine.  This backyard needs A LOT of TLC, but I hope Justin's new found love of gardening will aid the cause.  Big thanks to my wonderful neighbors for mowing my backyard today - the grass (I mean weeds) was nearly waist high.

Later he set out to do a little documenting on his own.  He had orginally told me he wanted to take a picture of the moon (which makes sense, cause the only time I bust out the tri-pod is to ATTEMPT to shoot the moon) - but he moved his set-up down to the grass to snap a shot of our work.
