I hate Juniper bushes

The start of summer kicked off Whitcomb's 'get the yard done' season. Having worked for Davey Tree for so many years, he definitely knows what he is doing.

This is a picture of our yard 2 years ago when we moved in.




YIKES! We could barely get out of our cars with the monster junipers on each side. What in the world made junipers such a huge trend? They are AWFUL! The nice tree in the front died the next year- well half of it. A half of a live tree doesn't quite look right, so away it went.



I'd like to say I helped with the beautification of our yard-who am I kidding, I hate yard work. I'm so thankful my husband is not only good at it, but actually enjoys it. A win all around, if you ask me. Bellamy and I will play outside, and sometimes Bellamy will even nap outside (in her hammock chair) while her Daddy is hard at work.


This has been the progression of our yard:







This is what our yard looks like today:



I'm so proud of my husbands hard work! What a huge improvement!
