Landscaping...

There is no way that the "after" pictures will do any justice unless I show the "before" pictures right next to them…

Repaved garage entrance.

Side entrance. No more collecting a pool of water all winter!!!

We are testing paint colors…if you're curious, we're going with the ones on the left. We start on the 26th!!!!

Side of home, by side entrance.

Extra parking on the side of the garage.

One of my gardens.

More parking on the other side of garage.

Back of the house, carriage crossing continues around the back of the home with fun "burms" of mulch and plants.

We managed to uncover the historic carriage crossing in some places that it was buried.

Firepit. We uncovered this existing walkway (on the right) so we added another full garden (not pictured) on the right of it.

Side yard. The garden we added is in the foreground, followed by mulch, grass, then trampoline area.

Tore up damaged concrete. Added river rock around the entire home and graded away from the house for proper drainage.

Side yard. The ground was leveled, Kentucky Blue Grass put in, with railroad ties surrounding it. Mulch around lilac bushes. Carriage crossing in the foreground.

What do you think…did the landscapers doing a better job at burying the trampoline than the boys did?

One of the flower beds in front of the home.

Another view, just because :)

Front yard.

Flower bed in front of home and historic water drainage systems that surrounds the whole property.

Front of home.

Historic Victorian fencing in the front of property.

I love my new landscaping!!!!
