Remember this? Well, after months of moving dirt, planting, and painting I am pleased to present a slightly better looking version of our house. I am really glad that most of the work is done and I am really happy with how it came together but I’m kind of bummed that it will all be cover in leaves in a couple of weeks.

p.s. I know I still need to paint the chimney. I’m doing it this week.
