A Fresh New Look

Recently, we had to do some major work on our front lawn. Last summer, anything that was once green died with the 110 degree temps & lack of rain. We spent months living with dead shrubs and little grass.  I know our neighbors cringed at the sight of our pathetic state.

While I was always hoping to run into "Yard Crashers" at Lowe's or The Home Depot, I never did.  So last month, as we traveled to Florida, our own yard crew got to work on this big project.  Three trees were removed to allow for turf growth.  Q & J had already dug up the dead shrubs (this before pic was taken from Google maps when the shrubbery was not completely dead).  A sprinkler system was installed to keep all living things alive.  Boulder rock formed our beautiful flower beds & lovely green sod was put down.

We love the end result.  Our house can now be seen from the street and I have lovely rose bushes to admire.  I'm a happy girl!
