First, let me start out with why I needed help. We belong to an HOA and we are out of compliance because we have left our garage door open all day too many times, we have "weedy" flower beds (their wording, not mine), our wing fence broke in a fierce wind storm 2 years ago and we haven't had the money to fix it, it appears as our side yard isn't finished, it is, but again its just rocks and we haven't had enough money to get more rocks to make it look more "finished". Now, I take FULL responsibility for us being out of compliance what I don't understand is why our HOA has done NOTHING the last 6 years and is suddenly coming down hard and only giving people 30 days to get into compliance, I should send them an email, as my husband had his procedure done and cannot lift, pull or exert himself for at least 2 weeks. Then again, I'm afraid that if I get an extension I will lose my fire to get it done in the 30 days but maybe on the things that cost money??
ANYWAYS, the reason I'm seriously SO BLESSED.... My aunt came out on Thursday and we got my front flower bed completely weeded, I finished a few things in the main front yard on Friday but yesterday I went to the gym so I was burnt out and sore. My aunt had mentioned that maybe she and her 2 boys would come out on Friday, they weren't able to, so she said that they would come out today, so they did and we got SO MUCH done!! I feel so extremely blessed that they would come help and that we got so much done, I feel confidant that we can get all the weeds taken care of and we kept all the pieces from the fence and Andy thinks he MIGHT be able to fix it and make it work til we can replace the broken piece, and the rocks?? IDK what to do about those, we were able to buy mulch and bulbs so I want to get all of them planted and put down the mulch so my front flower bed doesn't get so "weedy". I LOVE my family and I'm one lucky girl!
Don't be shy!

GREAT DAY!!
We blessed the baby today at church, it was FAB! Both of the AMAZING men Andrew is named after were there (his dad of course) and Andy's grandpa James was there, who by the way is in his late 90's, AND hasn't needed any assistance until recently, so he now lives with Andy's parents, it was SO great!! Because we live in a TINY house my brother and sister in law who live less than a mile from us graciously offered to host the luncheon after, the food was great and the company was GREAT! I feel SO blessed to have an amazing husband that honors his priesthood and to have so many wonderful and loving family members.
The ONLY bad/sad thing we got 3 pictures and the camera died, not even a family pic :'( oh and I had on a girdle, pantyhose, and high heels for WAY WAY too long!
