Spring has Sprung!

I am absolutely loving spring in Charlotte. Although these days it feels like it skipped right over spring and straight to summer the days have been so beautiful and all I want to do is be outside.

Over the weekend we did a little planting and mulching to brighten up the front yard.

Nothing fancy for our first attempt at landscaping, but we added some pink and yellow dahlias to the front walk along with some new pine mulch:


And in the back corner that is not shown in that picture, we added my favorite: a blue hydrangea plant:



We still have awhile until the plants really take hold and grow, but I'm loving how lush and green everything is right now (even our baby tree).


In the back we have also added some colorful pillows and a new bistro table.


Check out how everything has bloomed in the woods behind our house - so much better than the bare look of winter.


Happy Spring to everyone and to all those not enjoying this same perfect weather- hop on a plane and there is a newly decorated guest room waiting for you (I'll post that one soon).
