The Lawn

The lawn, the tree, the shrubs and Ethan.

Another shot!

One of my rose bushes in full bloom. I think i'm going to become a rose gardener. I'm going to plant a climbing rose along the side of the house to come up over the front porch railing!

Some more of our shrubs!

Our backyard. The patch that isn't done is where our future deck will be. The giant house behind us kind of towers over us so we are going to plant 6 large and tall trees along the future fence!

Another shot of the beautiful green grass!!

After a little bit of drama, a lot of water and some excellent neighbors our lawn is doing very well! It was about a foot high when we got home from holidays so we headed out to purchase a lawn mower. We went all out and got the best of the best.... I mowed the front lawn last night and finished off the backyard this afternoon. It was SO long that the lawn mower kept clogging and I had to dump the bag like 8 times, but it looks fantastic now and I will never let it get that long again. I am excited to spend some time back there. I may take the sand table back there in the next few days! All of the neighbors are just finishing off their landscaping so the street is actaully starting to look like a street rather than a construction zone!
