St Patricks Day Color? JEALOUS Green

Our neighbors are the sweetest.  When we were in the first stages of even LOOKING at this property with the hopes of purchasing, they were right there in our backyard, visiting and getting to know us better and hoping, right along with us, that we would ultimately end up as neighbors.
And they have been nothing less than the kindest and friendliest people ever since.  They have watched what we have been doing with our property, especially in the backyard, and we have watched as they have made additions to their backyard.  Their patio was done the end of last year and has been a wonderful addition for them that they have been enjoying many a night.  They have asked us about our garden and have watched the process of us bringing in the dirt and getting the yard ready for planting, but they had no concept as to the size we were actually talking about.  They have been impressed and envious but have been glad that it is OUR work to do with the promise I will share with them.
But they just couldn't let it go.  This afternoon, I go out and tell Eric (the Mr.) that this new little project he has going on today is making it very very difficult for those of us trying to 'keep up with the Jones'!!!'  This is a cover for their new patio - going to be open and beautiful..and Eric is making it himself.  Really?  What a show off!  Not that Del couldn't do it also, they are both such handymen!! But the fact that Eric has the TIME to do it is what makes me jealous!
It will be a gorgeous addition to their home and our mutual backyards.  What I can't wait for?  I can't wait for our garden to be in FULL harvest mode...when .you can see rows and rows of produce - vegies - fruit etc etc.  THAT'S what I look forward to - the harvest.  Our backyard will be glorious.
