Remember the rock wall that Brian and his Dad worked so hard to build? Well, the poor thing has been empty for about a month and a half. But not anymore! Yesterday, Brian and I spent 13 long hours in the hot sunshine finishing the front yard. I think it was 102 degrees yesterday. We always seem to pick the hottest day of the year to work in the yard. But boy, was it worth it. Is this not the most beautifully landscaped yard you have ever seen? We have two trees, about 15 bushes and flowers, and TONS of bark. I'm so excited, it looks so good! I keep looking out the front window or going outside to look at it.
During our project yesterday, we also discovered at least 5 wasps nest and there are about 9 million wasps in our backyard. I'm scared for our lives. I do NOT do bees. Any suggestions on how to get rid of them? We have tried spraying the nests with wasp/yellow jacket killer, and I have one of those yellow cone trap thingies hanging in the back yard, but it hasn't caught anything yet. I think they are plotting against us. I don't want to have to move...
Before...
After...
Look how cute our trees are!

I looks awesome! I love it! We have a problem with bees too and I scares me that Zack will get stung! I use one of those yellow bee traps and it works pretty well. Your yard looks awesome!
That may be the purdiest yard in all of Utah! ;) And sorry to hear about the wasps...I'm the wrong person to ask for advice on this matter. I run and scream like a little girl, when I see a wasp or bee within 10 feet of me! Mark thinks I'm pretty ridiculous when I run around screaming! But those suckers sting!!
Your yard looks fabulous! I bet it feels really good to see the fruits of your labor. Makes you appreciate it more than if you hired someone to landscape. About the bees... I would just call someone professional to come take care of it. Sounds like you have a lot of nests and I wouldn't mess around with those things!
Your yard looks awsome! I can't belive how much work it takes, makes me want to give hugs to the nice guys my HOA hires to do ours LOL! Where are you guys living now?
Your trees are sooooo cute!!! Congratulations to both of you for putting together an absolutely awesome front yard. It's beautiful and we are proud of your hard work and accomplishments. Every improvement you and Brian have made to your home has been perfect, beginning with new paint, new furniture and accessories, new tile, new rock wall, and now more new landscaping!!! We love you guys and are proud of you both! CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN FOR A JOB WELL DONE!
