Fixing up the Front of the House

Katie, Eva, and Wayne grind and scrape away the mastic while Amy helps Frank with gardening	Pumpkin muffin break		Frank builds a retaining wall to create 2 levels instead of the slope	It's a dusty, nasty job!
Frank's moving plants around while everyone else keeps scraping	The finished product. We've got tons of bulbs between all of the pansies so there should be lots of color in the front this spring. We've got thyme that will cascade over the wall (hopefully) on the left and oregano that's already cascading on the right. Best of all, look at the stairs! The astrotuf is gone!	Yesterday we bought a weeping cherry tree. Can't wait to see this in the spring!	Our front yard with the street view
