House Pictures for Mom

My mom has been asking me for pictures of the house with the roof now finished and the fence up. I hadn't realized that I was being lazy and only taking pictures of the fence from the house and not going out into the road and taking pictures of the fence with the house. Sorry Mom! So, here are some pictures of my house from the street (how most people see our house now).

This is a before picture taken on the 4th of July - Don't be distracted with how cute the flags make the house look! Tera told me to put the flags back up for the new pictures, but I decided not to.

This is the same shot as above taken with the new roof and fence.

Here is another before shot taken from the corner. Notice the juniper bush on the left?
And an after shot taken at the corner also. Notice the absence of the juniper bush on the left. Hooray! That will be replaced with flowers as soon as I can afford them.

These last two are just pictures taken from the street showing the house and fence.
We need to still do some major flower planting in the yard and some touch up painting on the house, but we love it and the kids love it. I can relax a bit more knowing that the kids are contained! Don't the pictures make you just want to come and visit?? Come on out!!

I can't believe what a difference the dark roof and fence make. Talk about picture perfect home! We need to reschedule a visit.
