Love it

In July of 2008 Ethan and I began work on what is now the home that I love. With the incredible help of Ethan's family we were able to get our home to "move-in" condition by the middle of August. At that point most of the inside was complete but a lot still lacked in our yard. It may be hard to believe but this picture is a HUGE improvement to what it was like when we bought the house. If you look at the line where the grass stops (right before the tree) from that line back to the fence was completely over grown with several large trees and who knows what else. The men worked very hard on clearing it all out. This was picture taken about this time last year.

And this is what it looks like today!...
I LOVE my home! I love looking out my back window to this beautiful yard. And pretty garage :). It's not perfect, but it sure is a Big improvement! And its a safe fun place for my little man to play! Landon loves being outside exploring and swinging on his swing.

It was so overgrown in the back that we did not even know,

that we had a shed!

It's amazing what a new roof and grass and can do!
So if you look to the right of the shed you will see our compost,

which grew a butternut squash plant!

It produced Massive squash!!!

What a fun magical place our backyard is becoming!
