Yard Work

Yes, more yard work. I didn't think it would be this everlasting when we bought our house, but over the last month we've spent quite a few weekends sprucing up our yards.

Sunday afternoon, Sam decided he wanted to remove some of our grass in the back yard (similar to what we did in the front, but a little different) . Our plan is to make more room to move around in our back yard, since right now it's basically all grass and a little deck. We hope to be able to plant a little more & make it easier for Sam to mow the grass.

We were also approached by our neighbor to go in on a truck load of bark chips for both our yards. Since this is essentially cheaper than ordering it ourselves or going to Wal-Mart and buying individual bags of the stuff, we jumped at the opportunity. We're not sure the exact amount we're ordering yet, but we know it's coming in a few weeks. We've got to finish the back yard and prepare the sides of the house so we can get to spreading the bark chips as soon as it arrives.

Hopefully, we'll be satisfied with our yards soon and we can just spend the weekends enjoying it, rather than working in it. Detials & pictures to come soon...
