Here is a photo of our house from the road. You can see the 'small' yard off to the right. Over to the left is the 'big' yard, shown in the 2 photos below.

These photos are of the smaller side of the yard and a little bit of the backyard. This area has had the most improvements done on it over the years. Among these have been the addition of numerous shrubs, vines and flowers, 11 new and reshaped flowerbeds, grass, a gravel and stone walkway, 2 arches, a deck and a fence. In a couple photos the lawn looks spotty but those areas have since been dug up and reseeded so the grass will grow uniformly. All of the landscaping on this side has been done by mom. Dad made the deck and my brother Kyle helped him with the fence.
