Our New Backyard

This is the before picture of our backyard. A failed attempt at grass seed, untrimmed trees and nothing of "beauty."
Here are the afters taken after a week of pulling weeds, laying sod, planting a garden and some "beauty" in the form of rose bushes. Hard work, but it's no nice to see green grass instead of brown dirt. Our dog also enjoys not having to have her feet wiped for 10 minutes before coming into the house.
Also, I had been checking craigslist for the past couple of weeks looking for a patio set since we have more than dirt to admire and as I was chasing our kids down the street on their bikes, our neighbor had a rattan set sitting out to give away and kindly passed it on to us. A nice surprise blessing!
