BUILDING A NEW HOME: Landscaping

BUILDING A NEW HOME

This is a detailed account of our experience building a dream house. Hopefully, it will chronicle our daily or at least weekly experiences with the project. We are not building it ourselves, but instead hired a builder to handle that part of the stress. This is our labor of love and we give thanks to God for blessing us with the opportunity to do it.

About Me

Name: PARIS

Location: United States

I absolutely love and adore God as my first mission in life. My second greatest loves are my children and husband. I also have a very deep and sincere commitment to the aid, love and support of hurting, impoverised, and/or underprivelaged children here and abroad. I spend much of my resources trying to be a blessing to many of those children in the world. If you are interested in helping please let me know. I am very interested in business issues as I own 2 companies. I am highly ambitious and driven. I love new homes, and interior design. I'm an admitted shopaholic. I've been singing since I was a small child and have an infinite love for music.

Landscaping - Really Tired

I'm just about at shear exhaustion literally. We have a week and a day to go, and trying to get everything done (New furniture in time for move - old house cleaned out/packed, etc., etc.) has absolutely sucked out my energy.

Good News - Landscaping is almost done. However, we have 1 real issue and that is that because of the side load garage the concrete was laid on a curve from the driveway around to the front door. Not what I want. I would like a nice long walk way straight from the door to the street. We will correct that shortly and the landscaping will really come to life I think. I will take better landscaping pictures next time up close. Meanwhile, everything is new and small - landscaping has to grow I suppose.

Columns - Finally arrived for the family room. Even unpainted - they look so much better than what was there before. Happy with those.
