Before and After

I took some pictures awhile ago to be able to do before and after photos of our backyard. I took the "befores" in the early spring, right after the snow melted. The "afters" I was finally able to take yesterday. I wish I would have been able to take the "afters" when my lilacs were in full bloom....they were beautiful! But, here we go. My husband's and my life just got soooooo much easier. My husband installed a FENCE!!!!!! He actually did this over a period of two weeks, and didn't even let the downpour of rain stop him! Here we go......






Before After




Before After



Before After




We have cleaned out the trees, cut down trees, raked, sprayed weeds, trimmed back trees, taken down an old antenna, had stumps ground and installed a swing set. All for this......












Now our next before picture will be this......our home. Lets see what we can do with this?



You can kind of see my new car in the driveway.....my plates say "Xpresso". Thats right.....I am that cool!!!!

Wow! Your yard looks great Lisa! I love the fence too. It's funny, I remember right where your house is at. I didn't realize you live so close to the airport. I also didn't realize your right across the street from the new football field. Danny-boy looks as adorable as ever. What a cutie-pie! Can't wait to see you all!
Love, Missy

Your yard looks fabulous!!! Don't you love that feeling when it is all finished and you get to sit back and just admire it? We have been working in our yard, not as extensively but it still looks better:). Can't wait to see you in September...I will be the one that looks like a whale:).
