| The new flowerbed brick border is FINISHED! Now just have to replant my irises and this flowerbed project is done. Picture taken November 6, 2004. |

Doesn't it look great! My Air Conditioner now has a brick patio to sit on. Picture taken November 6, 2004. |
| Completely redoing this flowerbed. Dug EVERYTHING out. Now working on putting in the brick wall border. Picture taken October 31, 2004. |

Front flowerbed from another angle. Also fixed the part of the sidewalk, that had been torn up when we put in the water line. Hope the irises are not going to mind being out of the ground for a couple days. Picture taken October 31, 2004. |
| A few small zinnias are left, and some other flowers that are sometimes
called Touch-me-nots. They are in the impatient family - with velvet seed pots that
burst and curl when they ripen. Can also see a small glimpse of my iris plants in the bottom right corner. Plus lots of weeds. (This was not a good year for this bed. Just reinforces my opinion that I need to completely redo it - just to get rid of the weeds and rearrange my irises to fill the hole left over from when we got our public water line put in.)

Zinnias in my front flowerbed! My daughter planted them for the county fair. Picture taken August 12, 2004. |
| It is not a very clear picture, but for some reason, it is the only
picture I took this year of my white irises blooming in the front flowerbed. Picture taken May 22, 2004. |

My irises are getting ready to bloom. As you can see from this bud among the wildflowers (AKA weeds). Picture taken May 12, 2004. |
| Weeds? What weeds? They have flowers, so that makes them wildflowers - Right!?! (Who am I kidding - they are weeds - that is why I really have to get them pulled out. Honestly, I'm trying - that is a wheelbarrow in the bottom right corner of the picture.) Picture taken May 12, 2004. |

Someone really needs to get busy weeding. The dandelions and other weeds are taking over my irises again in this front flowerbed. Picture taken April 26, 2004. |
| Daffodils just starting to come up beside our Air Conditioning unit. Really want to do something about the area around this - when I redo this bed. Picture taken March 25, 2004. |
