Landscaping Project Complete

Last week we were working hard raking, bagging, digging, planting, watering, carrying, placing, and most of all sweating!!! But all our hard work paid off and we are finally done with our little landscaping project. There was a rather large area on the right of the sidewalk that everytime it rained I would have a pile of woodchips on the sidewalk to sweep back where they belong. I just got tired of it so my hubby and I decided to change it up a bit. This is what the front looked like after we took out all the wood chips and small bushes.We sodded in part of that large area and then added rocks and a few new plants. We are really happy how it turned out.
Here's a picture of one of the loads of rocks we got to spread out in the beds. It was back breaking work...for me anyways. We even got a tree to plant in the backyard. I love to look out the window by our table and see our tree out there, it's so nice. I wish we had many more but sometimes that's the price you pay when you live in a developing subdivision where they clear everything out to build.

Your landscaping looks really pretty, hopefully the rock won't wash out; Your tree looks very nice in the back yard. Too bad the people building houses don't even put in one tree when they complete a house.
Love you.
