Our neighbors love us now!

We had the landscaping redone this week. When I say "redone", I really mean it. The previous owners did NOTHING with the landscape. The jasmine completely took over the front, suffocating whatever bushes were there. The entire front beds were ripped out and replanted. The only things we kept were one crepe myrtle and 3 boxwoods. Adios, ugly landscape! Our neighbors are thrilled, believe me.

Before:

(It's hard to tell in this picture how bad it really was. The trees were dying, too close to the house, and had broken limbs. The bed in front of the garage was one giant bush. Yuck!)

After:

There are lots of small daylilies and things that don't show up well in the pictures. It will take some time to fill in, but we are so excited about it!
