Before Pictures

The side yard
There used to be an underground pool and cement patio covering that entire area. The pool was ruined because the previous owners didn't want to fix the leak so they filled it with dirt. Totally ruined it.

You can see the hot tub we put in on the right just after Sofie was born. Our bedroom has french doors that open up to the hot tub. It was an unusual birthing present. But I wanted something Ryan and I could both use--diamond earrings would have been cool too--hint hint.
Side walk going to the back of the house where the deck is, all of the spider infested bushes were removed the year before . Our house was built in the early 60's. It is an original Frank Lloyd Wright design and we still have the original plans.

Gorgeous yard! It's fun to see where you call home!

It looks like you have put a lot of work into it...wow!
Want to share any inside pictures?

You and Ryan look very creative and able to visualize what you want. Wish I was more that way...
Robb is the creative one in our family, and I always doubt him and then wonder why I do. He's a genius!

Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful day!

Love the yard. The before and after pics tell quite a story. I'm really happy for you guys. I know you'll enjoy it out there!

I, like Kimberly, am in awe that you live in a FLW house. Wow! You should charge admission...
The yardwork is incredible you two have done.

So sorry to read (Kim's blog) that last week was so hard. Prayers for peace and God's presence in the midst of this hour of crisis.
