House Pictures

Your yard looks awesome, Cosette. To keep up, here's a picture of our backyard. (We also moved about four months ago.) And let me tell you, it's taken a TON of work to get it looking this good!! See all that nice dirt and those pieces of pvc pipe sticking up? And you might be able to make out a sprinkler head if you look REALLY closely! Yes, it's winter & raining and we've never used the sprinkler system, but hey, it's in the ground. (No, we did not do the fence in back -- we'll strip & re-stain it next spring.)

Here's a pix of the fence we built -- our latest project. We were happy to get a 3-day break in the rain over the weekend so the boards had a day to dry out, we had a day to stain them, and then they had a day to dry -- perfect! We still have four gates to build, but otherwise the fence is completed -- Yeah!! Once the gates are up, I'll finally be able to keep Lisette from going out to the park or to play with her friends without permission (the main catalyst behind the fence project).

And here's a picture of our patio -- Nice, don't you think? And it's actually pretty empty now! When he finishes the gates, Scott gets to buy a firepit for roasting marshmallows to put on the cleared patio. We're definitely looking forward to that! :)

I'm totally relating to you on the yardwork thing. Today I spent ALL DAY doing irrigation for a bunch of plants. And it doesn't look any different! Sure everything will get water, but you can't SEE all my hard work!
Your yard looks big!
