Before moving to Virginia, I was constantly looking around trying to figure out ways to make it better. Now, after living in an older home that had TONS of issues (mice and mold to name a few) I count my blessings daily. Again, I LOVE our house. It's not huge, but is just right for our family. There was one last thing that continually hung over our heads... the yard. I have done some landscaping in the front, but NOTHING has been done in the backyard. The grass is 90% weeds. We are outside daily with the kids. So...time has come for the grass to pulled up and sod to come in. Tonight our neighbors took us to a friend of theirs that has a private nursery. We picked up a truck load of palms, a mahogany tree, some grasses, and 2 trees with blooms. The grass in the front yard was put down today. The grass in the back will be put down tomorrow. We are going to have a large bed cut out around the patio. Below are the before pictures. I will update as we go.
