It continues to amaze me the amount of projects there are to do when you own a home. Nathan’s dad was up visiting recently to help with such projects. His brother, Andre’ and his mom were up for a short time too to help out. So much got done and our yards are looking especially wonderful!! Thanks for all of your help! This could potentially be a really long post, so I will try to be brief in my picture descriptions.
First, the concrete on one side of the garage was sunk so low that when garage door shut it didn’t touch, so all sorts of “things from nature” would come into the garage. That was fixed first thing!
During this, Andre’ also worked on tidying up next to our shed and started on separating my “one day bountiful garden” from the rock pathway.
Throughout the week, Bob worked on separating the garden in the backyard from the grass and also making it much smaller than the previous owners had it. I think it went from 10 fairly good size plants to only 5. This seems much more manageable.
Finally, as a last minute “super find” Nathan and Bob worked late into Saturday night planting these arborvitaes on the side of the house. They found them on sale for $2.50 each. Wow!
There were also a lot of weeds pulled, ants killed, and other maintenance that they all helped out with so much!
