Yard Work

Dan and I took a few days off to go to the Jersey Shore in September ... as we got closer to the weekend we found out it was supposed to rain the entire weekend, so we decided that a 6 hour drive to LBI for a rainy weekend was not in the cards. We still took the days off thinking we might have some fun going to a movie, or going out to lunch after we dropped Sam off at school. Well it was all a nice idea, but as all you homeowners out there that can relate, we decided to stay home and tackle some long overdue projects around the house. I did the fall clean out indoors while Dan spent most of the time in the yard getting ready for fall clean up and getting rid of unwanted trees and shrubbery. It was quality time well spent. Here are the pictures from the outside work.

Dan dug out 4 small maple trees that lined the fence of our "soon to be" pool ... we figured we would get rid of them before they got too big - who wants to swim around in a salad bowl?

Hard at work!

We also got rid of the awful looking bushes in our front yard, they were dying anyway. We hope to plant hydrangea there some day - not now, but some day.



The boys had fun pulling them out! Argh Argh!





Hauling them off! Thanks for your help Mike!
