Front yard!

Another project to report on! This time we worked on our front yard/patch :). It had grass but looked drab and we were tired of wasting money on watering since it is a desert out there (be water smart). So we gutted and replaced with some desert friendly plants and this vibrant red mulch. I have to say, our yard definitely stands out now! Oh and Johnny put a coat of paint on the front door so it's not so sunfaded anymore :) Enjoy....

Before (when we bought the house)....



After we gutted the grass...



And the results:
(I admit the plants look a little puny, but either they fill out or we replace them - gardening is definitely a new hobby for us!)
