More progress!
We had a most welcome knock at the door yesterday ~ our friend's truck is back up & running ... which means ... landscaping! Well, the foundations, anyway. The yard was scraped, 7 cubic metres of topsoil spread, and two very happy people had smiles put on their faces!
So here are some Before & In Progress photos ... still nothing green (apart from a few stray weeds LOL) but that's not too far away now!
I'm not entirely sure why this is called my garden LOL ... apart from the fact that it is outside my scrapping room! I hope Matthew doesn't expect me to actually, well ... GARDEN!
Not much more will be happening here ~ just pebbles to finish it off.
Maybe a few hedgey type trees along here.
We'll have some trees here, grass (eventually), shrubs, & roses.
Only a "Before" shot here, just so you can all witness the horror that I've come home to on a daily basis for the last 2 years, 1 month, 1 day. I really wish I was exaggerating how crappy the yard is, but now you can all see for yourselves!

Lots and lots of YAYS for you and Matthew babe! How excitement huh!!
Oops pressed send before saying how gorgeous it's looking, wait til your plants go in, it'll look spectacular hon! I think I'd better get my boy in here to look at all this!! *giggle* Might guilt him (ok us! LOL) into getting activated.
The one garden I was going to try and finish before he got back from China and didn't, well I'm super glad I didn't now because yesterday they had to use that part to get the new tank through to the back! They'd have crushed all my plants anyways. I think I must have had a psychic moment about it hey and THAT'S the REAL reason I didn't finish it hey!! ;) *grin*
Hey Jody
Been off line for a week......WOW your garden will be so cool once your plants go and and get established. It will be well worth the wait. And a real achievement to you both. Love your house it is so great.
