This weekend I FINALLY tackled the huge task of digging out my extremely overgrown yard. Thanks to the help of my wonderful family, we got A LOT accomplished. Dad, thank you for the many hours you put into this project. I loved spending time with you...and it reminded me where I get my stubbourn streak from. :) Thanks also to Natalie, Dave, Tamera, Ed, Maddie, Livi, Harry, Derek, Trent, Natalie and Keira. I appreciate you all SO much. Denice, Meg and Cody - I hope your little ones are feeling better. You have all been in my thoughts. Little Senya, I can't wait for you to get released from the hospital!
Unfortunatly I wasn't able to take any "before" photos, but just imagine these shots with a barely-standing fence, a rusted gate, plants that were hiding all the beautfiul rock, weeds galore, etc, etc. You get the picture.
The 6 foot high by 15 foot wide pile of yard waste is proof of the hard work everyone put in the last couple of days:
The new stairs Derek put in for me:
Max loving his new yard:
Now I just need to kill off the last of the weeds and then I can starting replanting. Once the front yard is completed, it's time for the backyard. Who's with me?!?!
