We have always been big landscapers. I like a good manicured garden. Since the welcoming of children though I have been less than happy about things like weeding or dead-heading. This house has about a tenth of the gardens our old house had and about a hundredth of the up-keep. While the old house was gorgeous and I loved everything we did there, I was welcoming a bit of a slow down when it came to up-keep.
I took basically no photos outside when we moved in for the following reasons:
-dog hair everywhere
-it was March and freezing
-dog hair everywhere
But here are some photos of the guys delivering our playset, which was taken down and moved from our old house.
This is the front of the house before and taken in much warmer weather:

As far as the back goes I have zero in the photo department. See above for explanation. Here are the after photos:
In the back we added a bunch of bushes around the base of the deck, as well as a river birch in the back corner (not pictured). We removed all signs of dog hair after a few brushes of the lawn. We power washed and stained the deck. We installed a pergola and just brought over our furniture of course. Fun times all around.
And yes mom I know I need to dead-head my geraniums and I know there are some weeds under the deck but I don't want to go under there because of such things called spiders and so yes. I am aware.
