Our Home...and Yard!

This is our home in Sandy, UT. We love it...well Melina more so! We had the fun opportunity (not!) of tearing out the whole dead yard the first summer (05) and plant grass the next summer (06). This last summer (07) our grass was coming in nicely and we finally were able to buy a bunch of plants and trees to start filling up this large, hilly corner lot. We have a good size garden as well that produces great. The whole yard is now starting to look great this spring (08). As you can tell, this has been an long 3 year project for us. Thanks to all our family and neighbors for all the help, advice and service they provided to us!
A special thanks to John Behunin with Greenside Creations http://www.getgreenside.com/. We could not have done this without your time & help!
