June

The month of June was for getting projects done around the house that I had put off.  First my sister and I tackled the front porch.  She hated the "astroturf", but I was scared what was under it.  Turns out it's in perfectly good shape.  Just had to remove the adhesive before I painted it.  I also painted the porch poles because when I stopped to look at them they weren't in as good as shape as I thought.

My mom came up the next week, and we took up the old wood border around the landscaping.  I installed the new brick later.  After trimming the shrubs and mulching, it looks awesone.  I know it may not be very exiciting, but I needed some down time and it feels good to have accomplished something.
