Our newest project...or the completion of it!!!

This is definitely NOT the way it started. We have worked for almost two years on this yard....ripping up holly bushes like nobody's business!! This is just the blank slate before the landscaper came. Hooray for the landscaper!!
This is where the sycamore tree and about 30 holly bushes used to be.
Look closely....no, your eyes are not deceiving you. We have been awarded the highly esteemed 'yard of the month' by the garden club!!!
WOW!!! So different.
Our backyard. It is definitely getting there!
Well, as many of you know...we have put many months, a lot of sweat, yes, a few tears...and even a little blood into the renovation of our landscape. This month, it has all payed off! I cannot tell you how happy I am and...well, just look at the difference!!! We had our landscaper friend come out and pull out the last few holly trees and landscape our front yard for us. The final touch for the front. We have worked on the backyard ourselves and I really have been enjoying every minute of it. Hooorrraaayyy!!!
