We decided to put in some trees and plants this year, and Kenan decided to do all of the work himself (yay for saving money!) Here are some pictures from the enormous amount of back-breaking effort he put into it. Everyone that drives by gives us compliments and people think it was professionally done.
Hauling one of the trees. We planted a mix: Cedar Elm, Chinese Pistachio, Crepe Myrtle. We focused on trees that thrive here and also change color with the seasons.
Here Kenan is planting one of the trees - the ropes are to keep them upright and allow them to establish a healthy root system
On the tractor, digging - he laid several thousand feet of PVC in order to get a drip line straight to each individual tree. That way they thrive and we don't lose any.
Here are most of the trees in the front yard (blooming already and looking great!)
Kenan also hauled in tons (literally) of dirt and planted all of the landscaping himself. Here are a couple of pictures:
