Potential, not perfection. That's what we looked for on our house hunt. Can you envision it with me now, all that potential hiding in there?

| Taming the jungle. Matt's parents were crazy for volunteering, but they knew we couldn't have done it without help. |

A gazillion bottles of Gatorade later... it was a phenomenal and fulfilling transformation. Hiding in the rough were crepe myrtles, dogwoods, azaleas, day lilies, peonies, iris bulbs, a rose bush and a hydrangea bush. And once the mowing and edging was done we unearthed a brick border along the front walk. It was a miserable week in the middle of July, but payoff was worth it!
