Early Spring

Each Spring, I am amazed at the transformation that our little yard goes through. When we moved into this house, I was left a large perennial garden. I have cursed the previous owner many times for leaving me so much work! I really do love it, however, and so I thought I would post the transformation from Early Spring, to Summer to Fall. Each season brings out new plants and flowers in the garden. Here is a view from our back porch looking out into our yard. Yes, it's tiny and our fence really needs to be repaired (or replaced!!). The adirondack chairs were gifts from my parents, one for Todd's birthday and one for my birthday. Todd painted them red last summer. I was too fat and pregnant to be doing anything like that! :)












This is a view from the back of the yard (you know, by the broken fence!) to the back of our house. The house is a light yellow if you can't tell and we had it painted last fall.









And finally, here is the front of 1421 Hillcrest! If you look hard enough, you can see Charley the cat on the front step. We love the front door color, which is called Apple Red. We had the front porch windows done a couple winters ago and are so happy with how they turned out.

Well now that I've posted my house and garden for all to see, I guess I have a lot work to do so my next transformation pictures look good! Hope this finds everyone well...
