Dear Friends...
It has been a lovely time here in Austin, TX ! We are having amazing
weather and since the evenings are longer, I am able to be outside that
much longer too! For the last month, in between my travels and obligations I have been trying my hand at
gardening!

As you may or may not know, we live up in the hill country and built the home we are living in from scratch.. at first it was just to be a 'spec home' to flip.. long story short, we decided to move into it and see what we thought of Austin. Well, guess you know by now, we LOVE it! At any rate, I have been planning the look I wanted to create outside with some flowers and plants, mostly in the back where we haven't done anything yet. After a few trips to Home Depot Nursery, Sunshine Nursery, Lowe's Nursery and Bedrock Stone I am finally in a good stopping point with it all. It has been so much fun picking out the trees, shrubs and flowers.. of course it has been a learning experience too (remember this is MY First home)! Let's see if I can keep it all up and healthy! I'll let you know in a few months how it is going!
