The End of a Year Long Project...

So Steve and I have lived in our house for almost two years now- and we are finally almost complete with all of the landscaping! When we moved in the builder only put in the front yard and even there it was the bare minimum. Basically, just grass. Last year we hired a landscaper to finish the entire yard, including cutting out a bunch of new beds for us. So last year that was the main project- we planted plants in all of the beds in the front.

This year we have done so so much work to finally complete the yard! We had a patio put in, planted the rest of the beds, put in trees, and hauled so so many rocks to all of the beds. Steve is so proud of all of the work he has done and we think it looks pretty good! It's not quite finished but almost...


Our new trees in our backyard!

One of the side beds- with our favorite flowering pear tree!!


Our new patio! We love it- it's stamped concrete!!

Now all that's left is to get a patio set and our french door going out onto the patio!!
