While the huge dirt patch in front of our house isn’t all that attractive, I must admit that it looks much better sans stumps. Now if we could just do the same thing to our Narnia light post… You know, I’m not even sure if it works or not. Hmmm…I probably should add that to our list. I’ll let you know what I find out!
Here's what the outside of our house looked like a year ago...
And although this picture was taken prior to the stumps being removed, it's a decent shot of what our house looks like today...
Clearly the outside needs some TLC. But eliminating the awnings and all-consuming bush helped, right? Once summer arrives we hope to do some serious sprucing, along with backpacking Four Pass Loop in the Maroon Bells and taking a road trip to Yellowstone. We're determined to enjoy the West on a dime this summer. Can't wait!
P.S. In the previous post where I’m spray painting the clay pot, there is a white bottle hanging out in the background. Just in case you were curious, it’s a wine bottle that I spray painted white and then added to our new bathroom shelf—read about that splurge here. I think it’ll make a cute vase someday—and hopefully sooner rather than later, as I’d like to plunk a few flowers from our yard in it. Now if they would just grow…
