Weeds- Middle pictures

Our yard is no longer a jungle! It's far from being done but it is now officially a pile of dirt! Look!


We only got rid of two gross/half dead trees:


Our growing pile:


It's nice having a hubby who has access to equipment and can run it all himself:




I weeded around the perimeter while he dug everything else out because we are still keeping gravel around everything.


And believe it or not, there are still a few weeds to get rid of.

So this isn't really an "after" group of pictures. It's more like a "middle because it will cost us about $500 just to get rid of all of the dirt that we piled up and then we have to put sprinklers in and curbing and sod" group of pictures.

Still! Improvement!

Okay, first of all, LOOOVE what you did with mom's jewlery box (now yours, lucky!). You took something out of style and made it toally in style and chic all at the same time!! Great job. Secondly, LOVE the yard, looks great! And yes, getting the yard looking nice is expensive!!

whoa! big improvement!!

We're thinking of just doing a controlled burn with the fire department to take care of ours... its almost not worth saving our grass, lol. If that doesn't work, can your husband bring that big truck over here?!?
