When we were first looking for houses we would drive by this one and say, "oh, how ugly, I don't even want to look at it." Then of course, we looked at it and loved it. But one of the reasons we didn't like it was was the overgrown 1/2 dead bushes in the front. So we got rid of them.
The flowery ones really were beautiful, but I was just worried that if we trimmed them to where we needed them they would just die. So we got rid of it all at once. I'm not sure if we will plant flowers or strawberry's in the front, but something will be going there.

Isn't it so rewarding to see those changes!
Wow, what a difference that made. It looks so good.
Wow! That's amazing! I can't wait to see what you guys do with that new space!
One other thing... A window box would look gorgeous under that row of windows. You could do something kinda like this: http://image36.webshots.com/37/8/53/44/331685344LOPDnM_fs.jpg
It looks great!
They were probably spirea shrubs anyway--really pretty for the few weeks they bloom, but then not so pretty with the dead blooms, and then just okay green later. Good choice. Have fun filling it in! Maybe we'll get out there to see you guys when we are there soon.
