Our Living Memorial

In The Examiner this morning they ran a story about our garden being done. I'm really disappointed that they didn't actually mention the Tasmanian Landscaping Association or businesses that made it happen.  I know they didn't do it to be recognised, but the reason that I agreed to do any
media about it was because I felt that they should be.
  
I kept looking out into our beautiful garden all day today, not believing it is really ours. We love it so much and we spent a lot of time out there today - even eating lunch and tea outside.  Kobe wants to run through the sprinklers on the lawn flat out, but I have had to keep him off to give it a chance to take hold. 

Jay keeps saying it makes him feel more relaxed which is so nice for him, as he's been really struggling especially the last few weeks.  We look forward now to a lot of time together, relaxing in our beautiful new garden.

  5. Lisa, you could write a letter to the editor of the paper thanking the companies that did this for you. I think that they should be mention too.

  7. How amazing your section garden looks. People are so kind. I agree with Claudia I would be inclined to contact the newspaper and ask that they give the Landscaping Association and other companies who donated time and products a mention. You and your lovely boys will have many happy hours in your yard. God Bless

  9. Before the weekend I didn't even know there was such an Association as the Tasmanian Landscaping Association - now I will never forget them or what Tracey and Jesse-Rose dreamed up for the day.
