Here it is, in all of it's glory. We think that our new backYARD is pretty great!
Grandma bought the kids a playset (which they love...and I love it too...although I am a bit big for the slide).Look at that beautiful grass.
There are two garden boxes in the far part of the rocks. I will do a garden post later.
When Mack and I first decided to get the backdirt annihilated in one fell swoop by hiring Johnny Appleseed, I was a little worried that we would have buyer's remorse. None. We love it. We love having grass, it makes the yard seem so much cooler. We love that the kids have somewhere to run off steam. We love how much the kids love playing in the yard. We love that we also love playing with them in the yard. Just last night we taught Reese how to throw a frisbee...he's a natural.
Mack told me last night that he is so glad we did the yard. Me too. It was the best decision we have made as homeowners.
Brisbane is the biggest fan of the backyard. He waves at the backdoor twenty times a day in hopes that I will let him go outside. And really, can you blame him? Who wouldn't want to hang out there?
