Please forgive all pictures! Currently my phone camera is better than my regular camera so that is what I am using. I am begging hubby for a new NICE camera soon. Keep your fingers crossed so I can bring you some awesome pictures!

Landscaping

Our first major project (also the cheapest which is good when you just spent all your money buying the house) was the backyard landscaping. I didn't get one immediately before we started but this is from the listing. It's a big overgrown jungle, but when we started it was a big DEAD overgrown jungle.



We spent weeks pulling out all of the trees and bushes. Then we brought in a Bobcat to clear out all of the rock to one side of the yard.




Ryan was loving it!



We built a retaining wall to separate the rock from the grass and another wall to eventually have a garden.






This is what it looks like now today. We planted grass and some citrus trees. There is also a mess from the monsoon storms we've been having and it is so hot here in Arizona this summer that the grass is having a hard time staying alive but it is green in some parts.





Thanks for looking!
