Backyard Update - Pearl Arbor

We're finally making some serious progress on our backyard project. As a reminder, here is what we started with, this was the first phase, and this was the second phase. As soon as the warmer dry weather hit this spring Chris began the next phase that we refer to as Pearl Arbor. He finished this phase this past weekend. In addition we spend time, and numerous trips to nurseries, planting out the raised flower beds and building our pots path up the stairs to the deck. Sadly it began to rain yesterday before I got my pictures taken, but try to imagine what this will be like in full sunshine! I'm really beginning to love our backyard!

You two are welcome to come work in my yard whenever you want. Thanks for making me feel like such a landscape underachiever.

Sure it looks all nice and stuff when it is done, but trust me it is a LOT OF WORK! Lucky for me my husband has more grand plans in store for the backyard. Stay tuned for more updates, as long as my credit card holds out :)

Your backyard looks fantastic!

Now all it's missing is me chillaxing on a hammock. :-)

So, where was your husband's talent hiding when he was a kid, and his mom could have used some yard help, hmmm?
