I have worked on it daily over the span of 5 years, fertilizing, tilling, re-seeding, and planting to get our yard looking beautiful.
The backyard we call "Our Secret Garden" is a paradise I created for Ryan, the love of my life.
As you watch the slideshow, you will notice a Koi Pond, (something Ryan has always wanted), a pool that I made for myself (because I always need to cool down when I'm working outside during the hot summer months), a small house, (where I do all my crafts and projects; yes, it has an AC and a heater), a small vegetable garden, a memorial for our pets who have passed away, and finally a hammock to relax after a long hard day.
"I often think it's so surreal, and when I look back at all that I've accomplished in such a short period of time, it only strengthens my belief that I could never do this for anyone other than my man - He is the breath of me."
- Peter aka Blade
I chose "Ocean Size Love" by Leigh Nash, because it was a song I remember listening to when Ryan and I moved into our home. The ocean being the largest body of water, and so vast, this is how our love is - Ocean Size!

unbelievable yard, and unbelievable love. wow, I want that someday
Peter I remember when you mioved in and started all the lovely landscaping. It is out of this world, so lush and green and tropical. I love it. How big is your little pool, what a great idea. Of course I love the Koi pond, I loved everything. I will have to get pointers for my landscaping.
Thank you so much Jessie, the pool is 15 foot lengthwise, 5 1/2 foot width and almost 5 foot deep
I love you so much my angel. I'm crying my eyes out right now, it's so beautiful. Thank you so much for all the years of hard work you've done to make our backyard the most extravagant one that I've ever seen. It is truly a reflection of your love for me, an ocean sized, secret garden sized true love.
You're welcome, my precious love.
