I have started doing my memorial gardens so here's what I have so far.  I'm just putting things around where I think I want them then to  prepared the yard and put in the mulch.  I've gotten mulch that is dark brown with bits and pieces in it.  I love my Angel and bushes along with several items that belong to my Mother In Law and I bought a white poodle in which my Sister In Law loved when she was living had a poodle called Fancy White.  I have some old farm equipment that's going out there also.  We had a pool in the back yard that a hurricane brought a tree down over it and I'm going to fix that area.  I'm also making my children's playhouse as they are 28 and 31 into a nice house area to put potting stuff.  Can't wait to make it look like a cottage:)  Today 1 year ago my Mom was buried  so tomorrow will no more first.  These first of everything has been hard.  ALSO the bottom picture we have taken things out and sprayed weed killer on and plastic will go down to do my planting in as I bought some really great stuff that will come back every year.
