With being first-time home buyers, we have found projects to do to make it more "our home." We both have visions and dreams of certain changes. The backyard was one of them that we quickly agreed upon, so we made it our summer project. There was this big berm of plants that were half dead in our backyard. We felt it was just a lot of wasted space for such a small yard.
We decided to take everything out and level the dirt down a bit. The kids enjoyed this huge sandbox for most of the summer.
We decided to make an outdoor patio for socializing, dinners, and movies. It has been quite the project us novice home-owners and we learned a lot.
This is still not the finished project, which won't happen until the Spring, but you get the idea. The arborvitaes bring shade to the area very early in the afternoon during the summers, so it perfectly placed. We hope to invest in more outdoor furniture and a fireplace as well.
