Newest house project

Over the past 2 years we've been working really hard to get our house into tip top shape. As you may remember it was a foreclosure, and the previous owners didn't exactly keep up with the landscaping. Scott and I have ripped out a lot of stuff in the front, and our latest project was on the left side of the house. It had been pretty neglected, and there wasn't any plants there. We decided to build sort of a "retaining wall" (I'm not convinced that's what you might call it but that's the best I can come up with right now)

It took us the better part of 2 days to get it done, but I think it came out really nice!
(and Scott only found 2 little snakes hiding in the bags of mulch)

Next step is to move some of the zebra grass with have on the right side of the house so it will match, and then to put some of the mulch down that you see in the back of the picture.
