Let The Sun Shine!

Oh my word, what a glorious Sunday we had. Mike and I decided to spend as much time outside in the sun and I'm so glad we did. Oh, and we totally did it Tiny Wallet Style!
We woke up super early and decided to skip the gym in favor of some outside booty-shaping. There is this amazing park/walking trail in our neighboring city (about a 10 minute drive) called Deer Island.
(Doesn't it look like that plane is coming from my ear?)
It's actually the site of the municipal waste water treatment plant, but don't let that scare ya! The trails are very well-maintained and the view from the top is amazing.
You can scope out the city skyline, peep some planes flying into Logan and even see out to the harbor courtesy of some sweet binoculars!!
After the walk, we headed back to 02128 for some serious garden time. Lucky for us, our neighbors had the same idea so we were able to hang with them while we were raking and digging.
I wish I took a before- our yard was in tough shape. Leaves and leaves and dead plants from last year and more leaves and sticks and more leaves. We filled 5 (five!!!) lawn and leaf bags. Holy cow! Our muscles are sore and our backs a little achy, but we can say that our gardens are ready for planting. Woohoo!
We are SO looking forward to gardening. The sunshine, the smell of dirt, the satisfaction of growing something from a tiny seed into a plant. It's good for the soul.
