A Work In Progress

I don't know if anyone remembers what our house looked like before but we have been working on the outside a little bit... Ok A LOT! It's been a lot of work but it turned out really good! Deveren has been so amazing! He has worked his butt off the past little while trying to get as much done as he can. He even took Friday off to work on the house! Shocking I know, but once he decides to do something he has to get it done as fast as humanly possible!

Here is an overview of what we have done so far:
~Get curbing put in around flower beds, play area, vegetable garden, and trees
~Planting flowers, plants, Trees, Bushes, etc.
~Breaking up all the concrete that made a sidewalk around a good part of our house
~Making 2 pathways up to the front door out of the concrete pieces
~Ripping out half of the sod from our backyard
~Spread mulch, deer manure, soil conditioner, top soil, and dirt in all of the flower beds and play area
~Set up Bailie's playhouse
~Make a bridge for Bailie's play area
~Buying a patio furniture set and fire pit


This is what still needs to be done:
~Paint the Exterior of our house!!!! (Hopefully it will happen within the month, depending on the weather)
~Plant vegetable garden in planter boxes
~Pour cement steps in the front yard
~Do brick work on Bailie's bridge
~Make the patio bigger

We still have a lot to do but it will all be worth it in the end!!! (That's what I keep telling myself at least)

I don't know what it looked like before, but it certainly looks nice now and so fun for Bailie!
