Planting Flowers & Meeting the Neighbors!



Ryan and I spent the WHOLE day outside today! It was absolutely beautiful here! We took advantage of being home on such a nice day and landscaped the front and back yard. With the help from my mother-in-law via phone (thanks Lu!), we went out and got a bunch of flowers and plants that would be okay in our shady front/backyard. The people that lived here before us planted tulips which are nice, but will not grow up front, so we had to dig them up and planted Hostas and Impatient flowers. I am super sore right now but feel good, I didn't know gardening was such a workout!!! (BTW, I have been doing my exercises for my back as well as walking/yoga and whatnot, and my back feels so much better...knock on wood!).
While outside, we met our new neighbors who are moving in...they are young couple like us, and have a two year old and a 2-month year old! We talked to them for about 10 minutes, and I am really excited to have someone like them right next door! They are also from Indiana and the husband went to Purdue, so that is really cool too, we seemed to have a lot in common with them. We also got to meet a couple of our other neighbors, and they all seem very friendly and nice people...even offered to dog sit for Guinness! I think we lucked out with the neighbors, which makes me happy!
Lastly, above is a picture of some more of the furniture we got delivered...Owen's room is slowly getting together...we still have TONS to do, but it makes me feel better that we have started. Speaking of Owen, he is kicking LIKE crazy now, those long legs are definitely strong! :) but such a cool feeling...:) Miss you all!!!!!!!
