Progress



We have been working on our yard all spring, and it's finally starting to come together. Jim has been spending time building our retaining walls and digging up old plants, bushes and trees, and replacing them with new. Our biggest challenge was the grass in our front yard, but Jim has spent the last few days tearing out the old grass and laying sod. Once we get the landscaping done, we will change the color of our shutters and switch the outdoors lights and hopefully it will finally be the way we want it.

The first picture above is our before picture, and the last picture was taken today after our new grass was installed.

That's exactly what I've been begging Joe to do in our side yard for over a year now. Lucky you!!!

Come to think of it, how hard could it be for you to duplicate that over here. Second time should be a lot easier.
