This will be the first spring in our new house, so we are going to be spending some time and money getting the landscape into shape. Kent has already torn down a bunch of over grown brush which gave us an extra 1,000 square feet. Yesterday I had my first experience burning leaves & branches. I felt like a country bumpkin!

Kent making sure our grass stays hydrated:

We had a privacy fence built on the front and sides of the house, but wanted to see the big empty field that is behind us. So we put a chain link fence along the back. You can kind of tell from this picture what we did:

We are now in the process of researching what kind of bushes, trees, ivy, etc. to disguise the fence. I want something that will stay green year round.... Anyone have any suggestions?
