Third Trimester Delights

I'm officially in my third trimester...how exciting! Hello homestretch! We got some great non-baby related news... we are going to be on the DIY show, Desperate Landscapes! What is Desperate Landscapes you ask? It's only one of the most exciting things that has ever happened to us (EXCEPT obviously Baby O'Grady). Basically, the show will completely make over our front yard in a matter of 8 hours...the idea is that your neighbors leave for work and when they return your yard looks awesome. This is soooooo huge for us!

We bought our house two years ago and have been fixing it up ever since, the inside renovations are basically done, but the yard has (obviously) felt pretty defeating. Here is a picture of the house when we first bought it:
While we had to do some major repairs to the outside...new roof, new windows, cut down the ginormo tree - the overall landscaping is still pretty miserable. Here are some of the pictures we submitted for the show:

If you can imagine, the yard is looking more miserable now that the weeds are taking over! I've had this post waiting for over a week now, but I waited until today because we officially have a film date and are confirmed!! This might sound strange, but it feels so good knowing that we can bring our baby girl home to a beautiful, finished front yard! Ryan and I have been watching all of our Desperate Landscapes episodes from our DVR - we are soooo excited!
