Attempting to post some pictures...

So this is the front of the house. This picture was taken at the beginning of last summer. At this time we have taken out all of the shrubs from the front of the house and have cut off the lower branches of the tree to the right.



This is the back of the house. This was also taken at the beginning of last summer. Throughout the summer, the vines that you see growing up the downspout on the left, grew up to the second floor and across the ground next to the house, including inside the siding and around the inside of the door and window frames. And thick. We were able to remove it, but there are still sprouts that try to make a comeback every once in a while. All of the other weeds/plants from that area are gone now, and the area is waiting to be sodded. On the other side of the door is the air conditioner unit (behind the bush), which we worked on yesterday. The "problem area" is on the other side of the driveway by the garage, but you can't see it because there is a construction dumpster in the way. Oh, and we've also removed the light post in the middle of the yard. It was gass-feuled and didn't work. It was also ugly and rusted.



And while I'm at it, these are our puppies. Sara is on the left, Alice on the right.
