Mom and I have always had this propensity to redo things. It started long ago when we lived in Fruit Heights. Dad was out of town so we took the hose, laid it out across the grass in the shape of what we wanted the flower beds to look like and started to cut grass out. Eventually it ended up being this beautiful landscape. We were tan, in shape, and very pleased with the result.
Well, now we are on to house number 2, yard number 2. Of course we see new ideas around us all the time and we want to change what already exists at our house. This summer Mom has worked to finish the landscape of her back yard. Last year we put in this really cool dry river bed. This year we hacked out a bunch of grass, planted trees, shrubs, and perennials, and watered it like crazy to make sure that everything was established really well for this coming winter and summer.
In honor of our finish I will share a few images of the splendor that has started and will continue to flourish in our back yard.
