We are still in the middle of getting it all put straight. A gate to be done and an arbor to be placed. I have been very busy with all that too. The fence looks great. I must say as I am replanting my garden I am hearing your comments about less upkeep with the shrubs and I have been putting in a few shrubs here and a few there thinking more of that to come down the road =] <br /><br />Your home church prayer walks...how lovely. I can't believe you are calling 80 a heat wave haha. Your spring looks amazing and very, very green!<br /><br />A new car and a new computer...lots of fun. Just be glad you are only switching to Windows 7 instead of a Mac...I am still lost on this thing. You will get the hang of windows 7 very easily. <br /><br />I hope you will keep us abreast of all the Royal Wedding hoopla.

My husband is talking of taking the tractor over this week and making a path to our new pond. I long to take flowers over there so I don't miss transferring them when and if we build a house, but there's no good cultivated spot yet. Have a lovely holiday celebration!Lori Zehrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14487050268259026104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-27305669474834479522011-04-24T12:14:04.033+01:002011-04-24T12:14:04.033+01:00Happy Easter Greetings and blessings!

Great excitement ...Happy Easter to you too Barbara! Great excitement with your new laptop and new car too to be getting to grips with.Having just completed a new fence too in our back garden the hard work is in removing the shrubs or hedge in our case to erect the fence.I love the way your neighbours choose an open topped fence style,ours is solid all the way,no conversational section to enable us to talk to our neighbours through it! From now on it will be voices not faces,I thought it odd that we wont be able to talk face to face again,there was always a gap in the hedge somewhere!Oh well we will have to converse out front I guess.talesfromagardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853695502377101314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-47277995428413903672011-04-23T23:04:23.341+01:002011-04-23T23:04:23.341+01:00Everything is always changing!

Your garden always looks beautiful to me. (I no longer know all that is in my garden as I drew a map and no longer can find it. It's been interesting to see what's coming up.) <br /><br />Enjoy that warm weather. We'd like to share in some of it, instead snow showers here all day. Nothing sticking, but still mighty chilly. <br /><br />Blessings to you and your family this Easter.Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-84488851726027934982011-04-23T20:38:52.366+01:002011-04-23T20:38:52.366+01:00Dear Barbara, wishing you and family a very Happy ...Dear Barbara, wishing you and family a very Happy Easter.
