spring has sprung at the oasis

Here's what has been going on at the oasis...lots of work outside. Here are some before and afters...last summer I took out the lovely brick edging and this summer added a planting bed beside the porch. On Mother's Day I went with my landscape architect (aka mom) and bought a bunch of perennials and spent the rest of the day planting. Yep, I am the best daughter ever...manual labor is what you get on Mother's Day when you are my mom! I think it's coming along nicely...a work in progress...
