Pics of our new tree-free yard!

Hi everyone!
You might remember a while ago I posted about getting PVC fencing installed in our front yard. Well, on the side we want the fence, we have this really gross and UGLY wall of trees that comes out about 2 feet from the property line. It looks like something out of an Amazon jungle no matter how much we attempt to maintain it, and I just really hated it ever since we moved in! So rather than installing the fence in front of the trees and losing almost 2 feet off the property line - Craig and I decided it would be better to just remove them completely and run the fence directly on the line, making the most of our space and all. Well, after three weeks it's finally done and the trees are GONE!!!! They came this morning and Craig sent me some pics of our 'new' clean yard! What a difference it makes!!! I couldn't be happier to get rid of those stupid trees and our yard looks so much bigger!!!! Now we just need to get our fence installed, do some minor landscaping to clean it up, and WA LA - we'll finally have a REAL YARD! Not bad, that only took two years to do! Maybe at this rate, I'll have the new kitchen cabinets I've started dreaming of in about...five years? I'm such a nerd, I love these home renovation projects!!

So, I just wanted to share some pics with you all. Hopefully the next set will be showing off our new fence!! BTW - You can't really see our house in these pics, but it's the beige one in the corner of the third pic. Oh yeah, and that little tan thing in the back is our shed


ETA - I always have problems with pics! Will update in a bit!!

Lookin' Good!

Can I ask who you used???

We had tree work done a few months back, but I still have a stump in my yard that I need to get rid of .. and I think I might need to call someone else in to do it.

Thanks, it's getting there at least :)
We used Geronimo Tree Service - we've used them in the past, and my in-laws recommended them. Prices are really good, and they completely remove everything! FM me if you need more info - I have the phone number at home.
