updates



just a few updates to the ongoing saga of our house redo.

on saturday mark and i hand, {yes you read that correctly}, hand dug out the flowerbed on the right {and left side too} and moved our beloved crap apple to the other side of the yard.

it {that side of the yard}had told us it was feeling really left out of the remodel and needed some attention.

we moved a load of heavy rocks and tried our hardest to clean up the yard.

we are unsure what we are going to do in the now empty bed on the right, but at least it looks better than before.

oh yeah, mark had the concrete guys come over today to give us a quote on doing a matching arch on the left side of the yard.....

and the price was right.

so, just when i thought i was home free of more concrete, mark jumps in and commits to more..

oh well. i'll survive because the end result will rock.. i promise!

and i almost forgot- the mason guy will be here next week to rock our pillars in the front.

i'll start drinking now!

Just wondering if you are going to add plants/flowers to those little areas or just keep it with grass?
