The Grass IS Greener On The Other Side

Last week we were able to finally cross our landscaping off of our to do list after living here three years.  We have attempted to do it ourselves in the past, but don't know enough about plants to put the landscaping plans together and have it look good. With our front yard looking drabby for so long, we decided to hire someone to do the landscaping so that it could be done right.

Before:




Hideous huh?!  I'm surprised we didn't get a notice from our association!


We were so excited for the landscapers to come and transform our front yard from drab to fab!!

J was also excited to play with the mound of dirt that was delivered #boyswillbeboys


Our front lawn after:







I don't know if these pictures do it justice but it really is such a transformation!  I love driving up to the house and seeing prettiness!

Our yard has been pretty bad too and luckily Theo finally hired someone to get jump started on a pretty yard. We're the same way. We don't know a thing about flowers and what to plant when and where. Your yard looks great!!

Haha I love we have basically the same post! Could you send those landscaping boys to my house next to finish my yard? They did an excellent job!

Gorgeous! Love the transformation...new greenery and flowers are so easy to spruce up the house!!

Paige @ Reasons to Come Home said...

WOW! That looks awesome! Y'all sound just like us...we've lived in our house almost 4 years and have yet to do much to the lawn. We did put a load of mulch out but we just don't know what else to do. Your landscaper did a fabulous job!
