I had a great weekend! It was full of work, but it feels so nice to have my yard done.
Saturday was spent laying down bark in my flower beds, and putting down the fabric layer for the rocks. For a while I was pretty concerned that the rocks weren't going to come close to covering the area in the yard---1350 square feet. The pile seemed way too small.
Some wonderful friends came over to help out. It was actually a lot of fun (how can moving 10 tons of rock be fun!?!?!?) and the rocks covered the area perfectly.
Perfectly, I tell ya!
I have about one wheelbarrow-full of rock left and I will use that to fill in the some holes in another part of my yard.
Having less grass makes me look forward to a much smaller water bill this year! Unless the price of water goes up, of course! :)
Here is our finished product:
The shadowing in the picture doesn't do this justice. The color of the rock against the grass and the house is very pretty.
I love it!
Thanks, friends! You blessed me this weekend!
