We planned to spend our fifth anniversary camping on the Oregon coast, but on the day we were supposed to leave Amelia was recovering from a bug thats going around and Dave was in the middle of fighting it. So instead, we stayed home and rested up and spent the weekend working on our backyard project. All three of us thought it was a fabulous anniversary!
Here are some photos of our new-and-improved backyard. Lindsay thinks the transformation is unbelievable, and the stuff of home-improvement makeover shows!
Here is the view from the back stairs.

Wow! This looks great! I LOVE the flowers – quite a nice touch. Pop pop loves the baby toys and thinking of Amelia back there mucking about. You guys are amazing! We can’t wait to see the transformation in person. love you lots!
