Screen/Storm Door Success!!!!!

Yah, I finally have a storm door on my front door!
Just a "pick" (no pun intended) of how amazing my wave petunias are doing in the new front flower bed under Brandon's bedroom window!
Picture of whole flower bed, well almost....I can't believe how well my perennial seeds and wave petunias are doing!!!! :) Makes me a very happy, happy girl!

Okay, so I know to most of you this post will seem, well ummmm pitiful! However I am not the kind of girl that likes to be cooped up in the house with the air conditioner going all spring/summer/fall, I have to work in a "closed/no fresh air" enviroment, the last thing I want to do is have to have the air conditioner on 24/7 at home during our warmer months. Last year when we moved into our new home my Father-in Law & Mother-in-Law bought my husband and I the storm door as a "thanks for doing our taxes/housewarming" present. My Father-in-law was over a year ago Father's Day and bought the door, however it did not get up....he was here again on Labor Day, and the frame for our door is well, weird because of the window, so unfortunately it did not get done. My dad said he would come down and help Bill put it on and well....summer turned to fall, fall to winter, winter to spring, and spring to summer...Bill works the weekends, and dad works the weekdays and let's face it, this is not a top priority for anyone but myself :) as well it should not be.

Bill needed some help with our sprinkler system, so he asked Dad to come down and help...boy did I jump on that band wagon....I added the screen door to the list and WAAAALAAAA, it turned out great, I was so excited to have it done, I even painted everything out and it's all done the day they got it out TAAAA DAAAAAA!!!! I love it, love it, love it....now I know a screen door is not a thing of beauty, but just think how nicely aligned my back sliding screen door and front screen door are, and what a beautiful, wonderful, fresh air breeze will be filling my home, of course on the days it is below 90, nonetheless I am thrilled to pieces. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to my dad and husband for sticking it out in the 95 degree hot weather, in the HOT front yard....I am SOOO appreciative!

I did include some pictures of the front flower bed we put in this year under Brandon's window, WOW look at those wave petunias.....I LOVE IT!
