Some back yard action

So the backyard is where the majority of our efforts have gone since we bought the house. So far we have done a lot of clean up and planted a gareden with it's own "custom" fence ;) We have big plans for the finished product though, including a fountain in our pond...ooooooooh. Trevor is going to build a new frame for the deck and we are going to keep the existing redwood boards and use them for the new deck. We are also going to do a neat railing that will hopefully include some planter boxes.

The veggies are coming along quite well. We have lots of tomatoes and zucchini and some of the acorn squash (squashes??) are becoming muy grande! Our jalapenos are also coming along quite well and I'm uber excited to make some homegrown salsa. We planted a bunch of walla wallas...hopefully they get bigger or else our homegrown & homemade salsa with be just that with the exception of homegrown onions. Anyway, here are some pictures. Enjoy!

Ahh.. the overgrown yard of a house in foreclosure


Here is our little outdoor fridge to keep us refreshed, full, and slightly buzzed



This is when we still had grass! It was so nice to lay in while it lasted




Dexter is helping Trevor dig the new garden :)



Alright there is a time lapse of hot dry Utah summer combined with us letting the lawn die ...halfway on purpose so we can flatten it out and start over, and halfway out of laziness with watering.



Here are some shots of that party we had in July where the cops came to break it up at like 8:30...heh
