Shawn in the kitchen..it's a good thing:)

BEFORE:
The boy's play area went from this spot in the yard to.....
This spot on the back fence with more shade. It may look like this was an easy task.NO,it took 2 full days of work to knock out the old raised beds, move and add cedar chips, make a new driveway to my Shoppe (where the swings were), make a new raised area for the swings and make my cute new garden! I only wish our neighbors would clean up their hideous Arborvite (sp)& put up a nice good neighbor fence!!!! MY MAN did all this so I can remodel the Shed to become My Shoppe for my Biz!! Isn't that sweet?

So now we have to clear out the storage in there and start remodeling!!!

Stay tuned........
