New Look for Front Yard

Before and After
The whole project has taken a couple of years, but we're getting closer. We're still going to add artificial grass.

We needed a new driveway because of cracks and uneven spots, so the flower bed and tree had to go. Sarah was a great helper. The whole family pitched in--and some neighbors.

We also cut down the pine tree near the sidewalk. We could not have done it without Jon and John.

Next we cut down the tree by the house--it was blocking our window view anyway.

We decided to go with steps from the house to the street. We love that part, especially the color!

Then we were ready for concrete.

Next, the rockscaping. Here you see Ashley and Mom placing rocks. It was a big job. We all pitched in.

Rhonda and Peggy got down and dirty. Eva too.

It is still a work in progress. The reality is we spent our yard budget on Radar's hospital bill.

We are going to put artificial grass over the black area. Stay tuned! We will finish it.
