Our House "After"

This is our house after a lot of hard work, painting and landscaping!!!



We are going to have our chimney tuck pointed this spring, because unfortunately the ivy that was growing up it all those years destroyed a lot of the mortar and damaged some of the bricks.



We love to landscape so this is our favorite season!







My Mother's Day present a Japanese Maple Weeping Laceleaf, we planted it together as a family that's a great memory that will last forever!







Now we feel like people will want to come inside our home rather than keep driving by!




Our front lawn with our flower bed with our new Hemlock, we wanted our landscaping to reflect our style, all cottage!

Okay - I would settle for your house *before* the spruce up! But it's even lovelier now! Great job!

I adore your home. It looks like it jumped right out of a story book. I think it should be on HGTV! Great job! Susie H
