The Front of the house just before we moved in. The big scary blob overshadowing the front poarch is a holly tree that spent the summer trying to return to a bush.
The Front Porch, again being taken over by bushes.... Leah tells me there will be flowers on some of them eventually.... though I'm suspicious since she recently chopped them all down.
More of the scary bushes trying to take over the front porch.... apparently that one by the post is a climbing rose bush, with nothing to climb on....
The View that most people saw, driving up... yes there is a house under there somewhere.....
The side yard. The plan is to grade this so it doesn't have a big hump running down the middle of it and put in raised garden boxes, behind a half high fence.
The Fence along the side yard. Chain link and plastic slats... one day we plan to switch is out for wood.
The side yard from the back. Shall we play 'spot the addition'?
There is is! Looks like two additions actually, one is the back half of the kitchen, the other is Mom's room, the family room and the laundry room... all vitally important parts of our house. My secret dream is to fix that crappy roof so that it matches the original, and do the same with the siding.... one day.
Back of the house and part of the back yard.
The rest of the back yard... and the unfortunate shed. One day that space will be our fire pit area.... or something less ugly then that.
