Yard photos

We did some yard updates.  Last May we had a sidewalk and back patio poured.  Our yard was really soggy and muddy.  This has really helped.

My husband has worked very hard on the retaining walls on both sides of our house. These pictures were taken after he already started to level the land.  He was out in the rain and heat for many hours on this project.  But he has a talent that needs to be shown!  His lawn and the rest of the yard is pretty darn loved also.  I just have to brag and show off his skills.

Here is the finished product

Here is the rest of the yard.  After ripping out many old bushes, planting several new ones and spreading a lot of bark, we are happy with it.

Our garden's first year...I learned a lot.  This will be a work in progress....

There you go Mom! This was for you!
