Landscaping Project

Here are some pictures that will bring our landscaping project up to date. We ended up cutting down the trees, digging 15" trenches, filling the trenches with gravel, building the walls, bringing in 2 yards of topsoil, mixing the soil with our dirt-with a layer of topsoil on top, planting an orange/yellow/red flower garden in our center bed, with ferns, agapanthus, and red impatiens on the outside beds. Joe also put in a new sprinkler system. Everything is very happy and growing well, already! Here are the pictures:
Jonathan on the side of our front yard. You can see the wall and some of the impatiens with hints of the ferns and agapanthus in the back.
Our orange, red, and yellow bed. Everytime we go outside Thomas or Abigail will say "Look at all the smiles!"

Here is the south bed, with sprinklers on. :)
I took this yesterday. Joe, Abigail, and Thomas were adding some plants to the corner. Notice the wall around the fire hydrant and around the corner? I love Joe's craftsmanship!!!
