The Back Yard Lives!!!

So after spending most of the winter using the backyard as a dumping ground, we have started the clean up process. We still need to get new fencing but we got the grass trimmed and moved the planters that were here where the sun will actually shine. Shane planted his blueberries and I planted our tomatoes. Soon we will have a couple more planters and a fruit tree. MMM... Tomatoes...

Time to Start on the Garden

So now that the house is basically done. I am not sure if a home is ever really complete but for now no major projects inside. I decided to start on the front yard. It is lacking in curb appeal... So I used the broken pieces of concrete chimney/vent to create a tiered flower bed. I guess I am going for an English garden feel. Sticking to purples, whites, reds, and some pinks, for color. I did get a couple of ferns. I also planted Shane's silly fern he rescued from the gutter from our last rental. Pretty...

The Exterior has Changed

What we started with.... Drum roll please... Ta da The trim still needs to be painted as well the porch. Oh and the door. The cherry tree is beautiful.
