you can see the freshly laid sod and newly planted flowers. by july, we had finished the sod for the remaining 2500 square feet, put up a fence, and designed a layout for the backyard. hence the ariel view in mid-july:
in just one month we have now completed several projects including digging out and planting two very large flower beds that had three 10-15 foot trees, making our stone path (seen here) walkable, installing a sprinkler system, and laying a stone entrance in front of the gate. Here are some after shots:
it has been pretty incredible. now we are just recovering from the stiffness and sore muscles that come along with all that hard work! next up, installing decking and our gazebo on the 12x12 bare space in the lawn. we'll keep you posted ...

hey there lindsey and john,
what a beautiful home! it was good to get your note on my blog lindsey. things are well up here in Mass. clemson and DCF seem like long ago. i think the hurricane accelerated my aging process by about 10 years :-) anyway, i really like blogs b/c they make it so easy to keep up with folks. God bless you both and stay in touch.
it looks so good! i'm so stinking impressed with y'all and your handy work. i think you should give ty pennington a call and see if he needs some new landscape artists!
thanks, guys! we are really proud of it. we are going to do some more work this weekend, so we'll keep you posted. :)
