Where to begin....
Ever since we bought the house, David and I have struggled with the yard. this is now the 3rd year we have had to pull weeds, but this year was definitely the worst!
The yard has been dirt, front and back, bringing with it lots of dust in the summer and muddy paws in the winter....which brings us to this little story.
David's parents are blessing us with one of the most FANTASTIC anniversary presents ever! They decided to help landscape our yard for our five years of commitment to each other! WHAT?!?!?!? I couldn't believe my ears when they told me. AMAZING!
Well it has been a long 5 weeks of pulling these trecherous weeds out of the ground, but SOOOO very worth it.
With much help from our amazing friends;
shout-out to Morgan for her sacrifice of a windy and chilly friday
shout-out to Tony for stopping by on his lunch hour and kicking butt with David on the side of the house
What the four of us accomplished....
shout-out to Mary for taking some of our tree leftovers to the dump
and a huge shout-out to Catie and Dan for coming out on the HOTTEST day of the year so far and finishing our backyard with us!!!!!
Much thanks to our AMAZING FRIENDS!!!!
9 garbage cans, 14 30-gallon bags, and 21 45-gallon bags later.....our weeds are gone!
The landscapers arrived yesterday and are slowly transforming our yard into something much more desirable. WOO HOO! BBQ's here we come!
Here is a sneak preview...

The old home of the elms...
Bye Bye to the nasty elm trees!!!
I will definitely post the final picks when it is done! Thanks to our family and friends for surrounding us with love and amazing blessings!!!!
