[@rosamoyles3826]

Bonus video! I had to check the calendar to make sure it was really Saturday 😂

[@708exchangeyours6]

me 2

[@amysgardenstead2879]

Same!

[@Riverwalker44]

Yeah same

[@donlussi2424]

Same, I was confused for a minute on what day it was. Only for a minute, LOL.

[@cherylbailey4907]

Haha me too !

[@angelasharp8851]

I’m really loving the extra projects at Monica’s and Alicia’s. It’s inspiring to see what can be done with smaller spaces! And I love seeing the sisters together. It warmed my heart when Monica said, “it’s just gorgeous!” Thanks Laura for taking us along and for being a great sister!

[@kathrynmettelka7216]

Those raised beds are gorgeous. I want them too.

[@CarlaStahl-bc7ou]

What a transformation ! It’s truly amazing what you can fit into a smaller space. You two work so hard and are great together. Can’t wait to see what you plant Monica ! Thanks for bringing us along on this process😊

[@bettythomas2193]

🎉a bird bath would look cute in the center

[@charlottea.cavatica8423]

What a heartwarming video. Lovely to see 2 sisters in such harmony with magnificent results! Talk about efficient use of space; remarkable. May Monica & Nick spend many happy hours in their “oasis”.

[@addykins100]

Watching Garden Answer has made me more hardworking……..Laura is such an inspiration and her enthusiasm is contagious.

[@athomewithfrancsicio]

Touche'

[@onthe45]

Thank you for showing us what we can do in a small space. I have a similar yard to Monica and you've got the wheels in my brain turning. Congratulations to Nick and Monica on their beautiful home!

[@parentalert9350]

You girls are powerhouses. Your parents must be so proud🌺lovely job!

[@nurhayatimn6871]

Such a treat to see the sisters working together 😍

[@LorettaPrice-m6n]

Monica and Nick’s yard is looking so good. It does look bigger. Love the raised garden beds…GIRL POWER!

[@kathy8832]

Good morning! That space is looking so good. Love the raised beds you two made. That trellis Monica’s husband made is gorgeous. It adds so much to the space. Can’t wait to see with plants climbing on it.

[@terrycraven4848]

Everything you sisters do together is beautiful. You work so well together and your use of power tools is impressive. You two do it all. Yay for the girl team!

[@karenjohnston7082]

Monica’s raised beds are so nice it’s hard to believe how much room was there, love the copper caps and design. Can’t wait to see more 😊Good job girls

[@MyBackyardScience]

Now Monica has a beautiful raised bed garden! So well done! 🙂

[@staceyallard2692]

So thrilled for Monica & Nick! & I would LOVE to know how they built that trellis!! Laura a.k.a. Best Sister Ever!! & best KZbinr ever because we got a surprise Saturday morning video!!! Sweet! Love it! Thank you so much! Happy Saturday everyone!! 😊♥️

[@barbaraadams8475]

Beautiful job! You both are so talented. Making gardens tidy and neat no matter how big or small. Love the design of this backyard. Can't wait to see the rest of the plants in place.

[@keepmeprivate5366]

Yes, we'd love to be linked to trellis plans!

[@sncmom2000]

How exciting for you, Monica. And a generous sister to help! And we get a Saturday video! A win for all!

[@mollynackerud9303]

Please keep us updated on the progress. This is so much fun. Congrats Monica on your new home and fantastic backyard!

[@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149]

It warms my heart to see you and Monica working together. Any family time that you have......such beautiful memories. The trellis that Nick built is beautiful. The yard is really coming together!!

[@cynthiaj4863]

Absolutely LOVE, sister projects! Especially when having an easygoing sister like Monica. What a joy 😊 Great job girls, looks beautiful and you're not even finished yet. 😁👏👏👏🌹💐🌳

[@Gin0827]

I am so impressed with the execution of Monica’s raised beds!! You are the best sister!!👏🏻🫑🧅🥬🥒🍅

[@athomewithtexasgirl9888]

Looking beautiful! And I love the idea of a tiered water fountain in the middle. Nice job ladies!!

[@ronareid7956]

The birds will love the fountain too! (I suggested to a a gardener who has a birdbath to add cayenne pepper to her birdseed feeder, and she is loving the birds that visit every day to eat and drink and bathe.) Just love Monica's garden design!

[@jerriecook6908]

​@Rona Reid why the cayenne pepper?

[@ronareid7956]

@@jerriecook6908 Cayenne pepper keeps the squirrels from "stealing" the birdseed. Squirrels cannot bear hot pepper of any kind but birds are not bothered by it. My friend is overjoyed to see happy birds visiting her garden, and repelling squirrels at the same time is an extra bonus!

[@patwelch1373]

Thank you for the surprise Saturday video, what a treat. The space is coming together so lovely.

[@jeannerolig6042]

I love seeing a more typical yard space filled with beautiful designs for raised beds, etc. You and Monica are a great team, working in harmony on this lovely project! Two thumbs up from me!

[@wandabrown508]

What creativity! I can't believe Laura made Monica's L-shaped beds from scratch! I loved Benjamin helping.

[@kathyaakananabluebird]

Way to go ladies with those power tools! Monica's yard is looking terrific!

[@nadiamalen]

Monica's taste is impeccable!!! Her and Nick's space is shaping up so beautifully! Going to need tours of this space on the regular, please 😉 (If the owner's allow, of course!)

[@Funshine4u]

I love how much you have been able to get into a smaller space. It amazes me just how much yard she actually has. I love the trellis they made, it's beautiful!! Thanks for the extra video to start my weekend!!

[@vickimurphy590]

Yippee! Saturday video and it includes Monica. Winner 🏆

[@kimmartin529]

The trellis was a great addition. It really does tie it all together. Can't wait to see the final outcome! Great job Laura, Monica and Nick!

[@sayitlouderforthepeopleint1114]

I love her trellis so much I'm going to copy it!

[@CarolynOfria-hn3ty]

Absolutely gorgeous! What a great way to start our Saturday. Bonus Saturday video, and we get to see Monica.

[@carroldahl461]

You are gals sure know this to work. Your parents taught you well. Nice surprise to have a Saturday video! I love this backyard!

[@michelerok4252]

Wow you guys! It looks amazing. I can’t wait to see the finished project. Thanks so much for sharing and I know Nick and Monica will sit out and just enjoy their new backyard

[@diananguyen5847]

What a beautiful space! It’s inspiring to see what you can do in a small space - it’s both functional and gorgeous. That trellis though - ❤❤❤! I want to replace my cattle panel with something like that now.

[@judymckerrow6720]

What a bonus, a Saturday video! 🌸💚🙃

[@penelopehammerton2907]

👏 to both of you. I love the layout. Stone work is lovely. 👏 A great job made of the trellis. And room for a little fountain, running water in all that heat will be wonderful. Espalier fruit trees perfect. Yes you are right it does look so much bigger now. Happy Gardening Monica.

[@belindapace1669]

Maybe a couple rows of corn would fit there to go with the raised beds...good luck in whatever you do!

[@christiblue]

What a treat to wake up to a Saturday video with Monica! Her back yard is going to be beautiful!

[@cindythompsonthecottagegarden]

So happy for Monica to have such a beautiful space, Loved watching y'all work together.

[@lisabriscolino3417]

Oh the space is beautiful- your working so hard- ❤Benjamin is such a good helper. Monica has got to be thrilled - such a difference ❤❤

[@wilnellialima9944]

What?!? I thought this was yesterday's video for a second. Then I thought, wait, I thought yesterday was Friday?! Am I late for work today??! 😂 What a neat surprise ❤. Also, how especial is it for you to make Monica's boxes from scratch! This makes them extra especial. This space is beautiful. I like seeing projects in this scale because it's about the size of my yard.

[@wynorawishum5860]

Great project. Love how those raised beds turned out. Love having a Saturday morning video. Thank you

[@mdgordon85]

Your parents should be so proud of your skill, teamwork and belief in yourselves that you can do it. Beautiful space!

[@tammywinter9268]

Very impressive, fabulous job….I love the space…it has purpose and I really like that…Monica and her husband will be able to really enjoy the whole back yard…very happy for Monica…well done!

[@jen6202]

I vote for the espalier fruit trees along the back fence. That would look so dramatic and pretty. Plus there would be fresh fruit🍎🍐

[@sherylchapman4168]

I’m amazed at the girl power here!! Lifting those heavy boards and the construction methods blew me away! It is so beautiful!

[@loispowell7420]

What a treat Saturday morning video. ❤

[@sf55514]

Look at your cabbage. A super sized vegtable. Oh good Monica's garden. It's amazing how her yard is changing. Very good. I am impressed with the trellis Nick and Monica made.

[@cynthiamurray4278]

How fortunate for the men in your lives to have such talented women...including your Mom! Everything looks beautiful!

[@user-nm1rv2bh7k]

Woohoo, Saturday video. Doing a happy dance! Good day to all 😎.

[@Rhonda_H]

This space is coming along so beautifully! It's great to see what can be done in smaller yards and how many usable areas there are. I had talked to Monica while at Andrew's about her space, and she was so excited to see it come together, and I told her I was just excited for her as well and to see the final result. You two make a wonderful team. 💚💗💚

[@candicespencer2021]

Woohoo! Saturday video!! My goodness that looks so good! 😊 The black trellis that Nick made is beautiful!!!!

[@tanyapetit5062]

Laura - everyone should have a sister like you and Monica! Her garden and beautiful yard look great and it's only the beginning. Will look forward to see it in the future as it matures. I would love to win a House Link for my 71 yes old husband Charlie. He has Chronic Kidney Disease and suffers with fatigue. A Hose Link would make caring for our plants and yard so much easier for him. God bless you abundantly!!!

[@rondatignor2300]

If Monica wants to keep the copper caps the copper color, she will need to paint them with polyurathane. We found this out with the top of our new mailbox post. It tarnished fairly quickly, so we replaced it and sprayed it with poly. Voila! It is still the copper color. BTW... Monica's new raised beds are gorgeous!! Great job ladies.

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Laura! Those beds turned out really nice. I like the copper caps that Monica wanted. The trellis Monica and Nick made is beautiful! I'm looking forward to seeing the bench he wants to build. Monica and Nick ~ everything is looking so nice in your backyard. I'm so happy that you allowed this process to be recorded. It's been fun! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@claudiaceleste777]

I so can’t wait to see the initial set up of this garden complete, the trees in and maybe even a fountain; it’s going to be so inspirational ❤

[@angelabreedlove6420]

I think a couple artsy/ sculptural wall hangings on the fence would be beautiful either black iron or copper or a combo. Monica’s yard gives me a direction to go for my raised bed garden, thanks for the video it looks amazing!

[@terri.schenk]

A copper/silver piece over by the copper birdhouse would be beautiful. Great idea!

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

It looks beautiful Monica 🥰

[@Sharon-Me]

What a beautiful oasis you have created for Monica and her handsome husband!

[@shelleysilveus6143]

You are both worker Bee's! Love it!

[@Go6yughgdgf]

Your sisterhood is priceless. Protect that.

[@belindam3797]

Those planter beds are fantastic! You guys are amazing getting them done in one day 😮 Monica’s garden is going to look lovely when everything comes together 😊👍

[@denisewood75]

I'm crying! This is so pretty and the trellis Nick made is so beautiful. Your home is coming together. What a gift to watch this today. My yard isn't nearly as pretty but I put the raised beds together myself and loaded them with soil myself. I have 12 beautiful blue pots and a 4 x 24 garden filled with so many beautiful things. I'm watching this on my loveseat underneath my gazebo with an icy drink and looking at all the beautiful flowers. Laura this is all because of you. You inspired me to keep trying. Thank you. Thank you.

[@MicheleLHarvey]

Can Monica wheel her cart through her new raised beds? It all looks so great! Happy gardening Monica!

[@jgwood10]

With the size of the garden there is no need to wheel a cart through all of the beds.

[@joemcdaniel6341]

You never know when you may need a cart, so having the ability to use one when needed... is important.

[@aprilscott3022]

Perfect start to my Saturday!! So happy to see the progress at Monica’s. Am I the only weirdo who was hoping to see what Monica made for lunch?! 🤨🤔🤣 Both Laura and Monica make the best dishes. Thanks for bringing us along!

[@terri.schenk]

😃You’re not alone!

[@lydiamilanovic1761]

What a Saturday morning treat!. I had an ear to ear smile the whole time I was watching this video. I'm so excited for Monica, her garden looks gorgeous!

[@territhomas497]

It is such a pleasure watching Laura and Monica working together. Wonderful sister relationship! Brought a real smile seeing Benjamin helping with the project too. Impressed with the ability to use power tools, but you girls just take it in stride and make it look so doable. The design of the garden is very pleasing on the eye and I love how thrilled and happy Monica is with it.

[@loriburke7907]

Can’t tell you how much I can relate to this video! My husband and I built our home on 1 acre of cleared farm land, a soy bean field, 33 years ago. At the first party we had, someone asked who was supposed to bring the shade? Just this week, I have been working on a DIY slate and gravel patio with a fire pit near our back deck. Although we do have mature trees now, they are mostly on the perimeter of the yard. My husband set up the 12x12 pop up tent to give me shade, too. 😜

[@lisathomas1525]

I love seeing sisters working together. My daughters are about the same age as you and Monica. They are really good friends too. Love the transformation of Monica’s backyard. You are so inspiring Laura. Love your energy and creativity. Looking forward to this week’s content.

[@natasha1369]

Nice to see how happy your sister is, can't wait to see the fountain she picks. Maybe you can show the picking process, that would be fun.

[@teresaobrien663]

Oooh 3 espaliered fruit trees along the fence would be beautiful & provide abundance 🥰 My entire back yard is about the size of this corner & this is giving me so much inspiration!!!

[@Riverwalker44]

Great surprise while on my porch swing having coffee! 😊

[@QueenAnnesLace13]

Monica looks sooo excited, looking forward to the completion and to see what she plants.

[@maliabrooklyn4034]

Thank you for sharing this small space garden. It is SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I wonder if you would do an episode with Nick to show us how he built that trellis? One thing I want to thank you for is showing that you and your sister were able to build these beds on your own. That gave me great encouragement! It turned out beautifully!!

[@conniespitz2540]

What a nice Saturday afternoon surprise to find a new Garden Answer video! I watch every day Monday through Friday with my morning coffee. Monica & Nick's yard is just beautiful. I love that you two built the raised beds together. I wish my sisters lived closer. I love this KZbin channel. Thank you.

[@katrininsweden2856]

I want eternal beds now too😃 And can I just say, I always love your music! It's so uplifting. - I know a lot of viewers enjoy the natural sounds, and I enjoy that too, but some music makes the videos even better, in my opinion😊

[@barbaralaug]

Monica, so happy for you! Wish I had a sister like you. We'd be invincible! ❤

[@kayeichler1090]

Love the look of Monica's raised beds. I love the way you handled the weed barrier inside the beds. Deep rooting and extra protection for the interior of the wood.

[@sjerzgrl]

Monica and Nick’s landscape looks fantastic! Love the trellis they built. Looking forward to seeing the bench Nick will build at some point! So wonderful to have a sister that designs and installs landscapes. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@Garten_Antwort]

Laura is Just a force of power and Inspiration ❤

[@sandrapudoff]

You made all the first time errors in your garden (drip access), and now Monica will get perfect infrastructure. That's what big sisters are for!!!

[@peggyhelblingsgardenwhatyo7920]

Good morning, Laura and Monica, from Windermere, Florida 9b 🇺🇸 What a great project. Nice to see it from the beginning and watch videos along the way. It's going to look fantastic 👍 ❤Peggy❤

[@marandaranda]

I love Monica’s style and have always enjoyed seeing her favorites in unpacking and antiquing videos because i always think, “me too!” Seeing how her garden is coming together is the same feeling.

[@kathrynriggs2489]

Yeah for sister power! You ladies are rocking it!

[@janetklein9697]

Love sisters doing stuff together. Your sister is a sweetheart.

[@kathleenreynolds6492]

Wow! A builder as well as super-gardener! You and Monica are so fortunate to have each other.

[@belindapace1669]

Oh, happy day!! Bonus video!! Good morning, Everyone!!

[@carolwarmoth8744]

Looking great! Finishing that area really does make the yard look more spacious, amazing.

[@linsmith2310]

Isn't the transformation Awesome, developing and making New Beginnings, New design, New details all usable space into Beautiful Beauties Visually Appealingly!! Would Enjoy many above ground beds, for New gardening Space's!! What a Wonderful place and Space's to Enjoy, well done!!

[@janetkemper9177]

I love seeing the transformation of this space! Monica will have such a warm inviting space to enjoy.

[@lindaweaver8131]

Wow, what a transformation! Cannot wait to see it when it is finished. You are such a wonderful sister to do this for Monica. Love the love!

[@ann2155]

Yay, Saturday video. Her yard is looking so cute with the stone in the arch and now the raised beds. It’s going to be such a sweet and comfortable little place to mingle and relax. Job well done.❤

[@Jazzgirlaust]

Monica's garden is just perfect & that wonderful black trellis is a great addition. The espaliered fruit trees will be wonderful, they always look amazing, so decorative & you get the bonus of lovely fruits.

[@altheab.8907]

Looks great. What a huge transformation.

[@annjohns9939]

Laura, you show love for God when you show love for your family, your city, your church, your KZbin friends. And dear Laura your KZbin friends love you too. May God bless you and Aaron even more.

[@marinbandel2574]

Good morning Laura and Aaron! Monica and Nick's area is looking better and better! So lovely! Hugs from N.C. ❤️

Good morning , as I was watching you two work together it made my heart so happy as a mother . I beat this and all the things you and your sister do together make you guys and your mother so proud and happy .🎉

[@JWallywiz]

I wish we could see how the trellis was built! I want one just like that.

[@terihavlik4628]

Oh my gosh so fun to watch you and your sister, I feel her joy! And your joy to be able to do this for her❤
