Curb Appeal

We had such a fun time when B came home for a visit! The major thing we did together was weed cloth/ rock in the front flower bed!! I get soooo tired of pulling weeds and nothing ever grows in there except for bushes because they get drowned anytime it rains!! So to make things simple and clean looking, we replaced the top 6 inches of with rocks that we lined with weed cloth!
