Our house

Lately, we have been spending weekend after weekend working on re-landscaping our front yard. We added a new patio, replanted all new plants and a crab apple tree, stained our wooden entry and Carl built beautiful new planter boxes that I stained for our windows. He also built a few that we will put in front of our new patio but those are not in the pictures and will come. We reused our patio pathway lights by repainting them. We also painted our house last summer and we just painted our front door recently too. We have found that landscaping is a LOT of work but also fun! Our window planter boxes still need one more day before we add flowers and then I will show you more pictures. Here is the front of our house.


We love sitting out on our new patio in our chairs


Our azaleas have so many colorful flowers now


Here are the planter boxes Carl built. He is so talented at woodworking and enjoys it!

Adorable house it looks great! All your hard work is paying off, I hope you enjoy a leisurely morning on your patio for Mother's Day... maybe with a mimosa.
