I know what you are thinking..."so where is this house you speak of"? Well, the previous owner had somewhat of a gardening problem, in that he didn't really believe in it. So we bought a great house that was hidden behind a lot of vegetation. As you can imagine, the air quality was really good with all that photosynthesis going on. After having lived here for over a year we have made some serious progress on the front yard, thanks to all the help from our parents and a little of our own elbow grease.

Although we made the landscaper decision the day before the above photo was taken, we ended up being delayed a week by this:
We love Boulder in the spring! The snowy photo was taken 2 days after the sunny, springlike one above. But all 14 inches of snow melted away in a matter of a few days so our landscaper was able to come out and start up the "vegetation removal" process. Nothing has been ripped out but it is all slowly shriveling up back there (we have to kill off all the weeds before we can introduce grass) - so hopefully we'll soon have some nice images of our lawn turning brown while everyone around us is lush and green. In the meantime, check out the "Photo Time" page for some more extensive yard documentation. We are hoping for some dramatic "after" shots in a month or so if everything goes according to plan!
