Back Yard Update

So most of you know that we just basically re landscaped our yard, so here are some pictures. We are still in the process of it, but here is sometihng to give you an idea! Here are the befores. This is a picture of the mess in between the 1st and 2nd level.
This is a picture from our deck.

This is a picture from the top of our yard, this will be a
fire pit up here.


This is a picture showing the new and improved second level.
It is much bigger now that we got rid of the third level.
This is going to have a basketball court on it, with some grass
area.



This is showing the view from the first level.




Here is the new view from the deck.
So there is currently a lot of dirt in our yard, which is great for when the girls want to go outside and play! (That was sarcastic, I don't know if that comes through when typing!) So we are trying hard to get some sprinklers put in soon so that we can sod! I will post the final pics whenever they are ready!

I am excited to see it all done. I is looking great though! Hopefully you will get sod one day soon. I am still waiting for ours after getting our trampoline dug in the ground. One day--maybe!

it looks amazing. hopefully it won't be as much maintenance, it doesn't look like it should be. i bet the girls are loving the dirt! at least you don't have to go to a laundromat or something. thanks so much for posting the pictures. maybe one day, i'll see it in person!!

Lookin' good! Don't you know our kids favorite thing to do in the summer is get their swimsuits on and play in the mud outside in our nonexistent landscaping? LOADS of fun for hours!

Lyndsie and Daniel said...

Wow, it's looking great! Daniel said it looks good, and that your yard is much bigger and much more practical now. Can't wait to see it!

WOW! Party at the Pruden's when you get it all done! How exciting!

I agree with Molly...party time! But in the mean time, I tried to email you, but it came back, so I thought I'd try this. Would you be able to get together with some of the girls this week for lunch at a park? And if it's crappy weather, somewhere else? So far it looks like Friday is the best day, but I'm still waiting to hear from everyone. Maybe Thursday? Anyway, just let me know!

I had no idea you were taking on such a project! Talk about doing some "nesting"! We want to make sure and come by and see it when we are out in Aug. My girls were just mentioning that they don't know where you live! How sad! We will invite ourselves over one night this summer!

So much work, but will be so worth it, especially as much as you like being outdoors.
Looking forward to another 4th of July party!
