this is my quiet life

I can't say that I have high aspirations for this blog. I don't consider myself to live a wildly adventurous or particularly notable life. But I would like a place to keep my thoughts, ideas, accomplishments, and memories all in one place. Thus, I shall blog!

This weekend was a good, if short, weekend. Brandon and I spent all day yesterday working in the yard. Admittedly, he worked much harder than I. We both discovered that I am simply not "cut out for" tough manual labor. But I did my best to help.

Brandon built me a garden for my herbs. And when I say built, I mean he built a retaining wall, built up the bed, and then planted all my herbs in the space. Today, he came back and mulched the bed. I have to brag on the hubby here a little... he's such a handy guy. I'm a lucky lady to have a hubby with the variety of talents that Brandon has. I picked a good one.

The best part about yesterday was spending time with Brandon and working on something together. I love how just doing something so ordinary can make you feel so close. Even though I hurt all over today from the work, I think it was more than worth it even if just to spend some quality time with the hubby.

So here's the masterpiece.
