Yard projects

We have started many projects around the house and for the most part have gotten them done! Here is a picture of the house after we planted some flowers. I'm still working on having a green thumb!





The Gerbera Daisy's have done awesome. It's too bad they are an annual flower. I know that I will be planting a lot more of them next year though.



This was the start of putting Jaydn's swing set together. It took us 12, yes 12, hours to put it together. We have since put down mulch and an edge to it. We need to re-do some of the mulch but it looks great.


We had to stain the deck! It wasn't a difficult task, just tedious! It's done and now we are on to doing the 470 feet of fence that we have to do :(. Anyone want to come and help us?



This is the firepit!!! We love this area. It needs a little bit more work. We leveled it out with sand and then put the pavers down. However, we had a massive rain storm and a lot of the sand washed away. We have to figure out how to fix it and try to keep the sand from going anywhere. We have enjoyed spending nights down there. It will be perfect once the weather cools down.

I will post more pictures of the outside projects after we get the fence done!
