Spring Yard Cleanup

Now that the weather has been starting to get nice, we have prioritized getting our yard cleaned up so that our house can hopefully move away from that rundown and overgrown look in time for us to enjoy the great outdoors this spring and summer. This is a large project so what a blessing it was that we did close on the house in the middle of the winter, given that there was so much inside to be tackled before we even thought about gardening. We truly would have been quite overwhelmed!

We rented one final commercial dumpster to really clean up the last of the debris in the yard and that just left this morning. Andrew and Ben have also been busy puttering around the yard gardening, mulching and weeding. My dad helped out when he visited last weekend as well. The majority of our progress, however, is thanks to a landscaping friend of ours from Bible study, Mike. He has really added that professional touch to the landscape and has made great progress the few days he has been here working. There is a long way to go, but we are on the right track!

Here are some photos of our new and improved land!
