Happy Labor Day to us in the USA. I always find it ironic that the day honoring the achievements of American workers is celebrated with a day off work.

But I worked hard today. So did Patrick. After cleaning up a bit and swapping out some of my greenery around the house with fall leaves, I worked on more crafts. Party skulls anyone?

Those suckers look simple, but they’re time consuming! Plus I had to fight Cooper for the sticks in the yard. But I think they’re fun.

Patrick worked on expanding the garden area by paying down mulch in spots where he wants the grass to die off. He found a business about 20 mins away that’s giving away free mulch and has been bringing it home in totes. He’s going to need a lot more. the yellow area shows the faint black outline of where the edge of the new garden will go.

I’m thankful again the weather was gorgeous and perfect for sitting outside crafting and watching Patrick sweat it out moving mulch. Haha.
