Backyard Shenanigans!

This summer I had a project that was supposed to take a month and which ended up taking two-and-a-half months.  This was only because when I wasn't sick or out of town, I had to be careful of what I did because I was going to physical therapy for my shoulder that was always in pain.  The project that I did was my backyard.  The photo below that looks somewhat like the desert we live in was what it looked like before, and the other pictures are what it looked like after I was finished.  Pulling the weeds, cutting the grass, putting in a fire pit, edging the yard with brick and river rock, putting up the lighting and the picnic table and the patio furniture, and tilling and preparing the lawn to grow grass was all worth it.  Our backyard looks fantastic and it is ready for parties!
