Today the backyard garden gets cleaned up!

This was my garden last year and I'll tell you it doesn't look like this now! I need to cut back the butterfly bush, pull out all the annuals and chop off the dead canes from the daylilies, etc. I think I might need to freshen up the mulch too. I also need to plant something in the 4 window boxes out front-maybe some pansies! Pansies bolt here when it gets warm but I can have them for a little while. I also have to spray paint the urns out front (should have done that a few weeks ago-I'm bad). We are having our friends from the neighborhood over for dinner tonight, which will be really nice. If there is a chill in the air, we'll have a fire in the outdoor fireplace! The whole weekend should be a good one!! Everyone enjoy your weekend!
