What were we thinking....

When we bought our house we were coming from a quarter acre, full sun backyard. So buying a house with a great backyard was a HUGE deal. I walked through this house to the window in the kitchen and looked out at the backyard and knew this was the house for us!
Funny how living in your house for a little while changes your perspective.....

This is our top tier, funny how you don't realize that your swingset is going to need to be stained every year....haa haa

You can't see it in this picture but this is how you get the lawn mower to the bottom tier, it is a steep little hill and is one of the reasons I don't mow the lawn.....ok... so I probably wouldn't mow the lawn even if it was just one tier....I did say ONE of the reasons....

These are the stairs that go down to the bottom tier. That vine you see grows all over the stairs and has to be cut back a couple of times a year....it's a super fun job....full of creepy spiders.....and wasps....
I think some of the problem is that we live by lots of old people that get up at 5 am and work on their yard until dark.....Jason and I aren't really work hard on your lawn type of people.....nope, not that type of people....
