Yard - Before - After!

As the snow melted this spring... Our place looked more and more like the remnants of a war zone. The carnage in our backyard was a little overwhelming. So far in the lawn and flowerbed we have found: A bike chain, socks, spoon, fork, rollerblade wheel, chip bags, razor blade, bob the builder man, A LOT of marbles, screw driver, half a shirt, more razor blades, newspapers, slurpie cups (probably from Joe).

Hopefully we are at the end of finding these little treasures. Our goal this summer is to clean up our place!

So far it's going good! Here's a couple before and after pix! (Okay for now just the after pix, the before will be added later!)

It feels a bit like an episode of Extreme Home Makeover. Minus the short shirted Ty Pennington, and minus a sick family member. Or minus our family doing something amazing and volunteer related to the community. Other than that, the comparison is impeccable.
